Google Cloud Data Analytics- UL credits for TESU

[jazzcat]

I have 4 google cloud professional  certification and TESU didnt transfer any credits for them. Google cloud professional certifications such as security, architecture, and network.

Are your certs on the Acenet list and did you obtain them in the range of dates listed as valid for credit?

Coursera Plus right now is $400/yr ($33.33/month) and Google Skills Boost is $29/month with 30-day free trial(no need for annual payment) for the Cloud Data Analytics and Cloud Cybersecurity Google courses.

Is there a difference between the course on Coursera Plus and the course on Google Skills Boost?

Since they are ACE-recommended, can I take it on Google Skills Boost instead of Coursera? $400/yr is pretty tough for me right now (even the $280/yr one-payment deal we had a few days ago is a bit much for me right now).

Would there be any difference big between taking on Coursera Plus and Google Skills Boost?

Captainkrekt000,

Don't sign up for a whole year. That is way more time than you will need.

I signed up on 17 August 2024 and have completed the following courses on Coursera.
Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate
Google IT Support Professional Certificate
Google Advanced Data Analytics Professional Certificate
Google Cloud Data Analytics Certificate
Google Cloud Cybersecurity Certificate
IBM Data Analysis and Visualization Foundations
IBM Data Analyst Professional Certificate
IBM Data Science Professional Certificate

If you are planning on the BACS at TESU, this covers 4UL courses (Possibly 5 if DSI 399 is accepted).

For $59/month I think I got a good deal for two months work.

Hello. Which certs give the 2-3 extra UL courses for CS on top of the 2 UL from Google Cloud Data Analytics Certificate?

For people who completed the Google Cloud Data Analytics Certificate, how long did it take you? I think I want to do this one, but the estimates I see are for 6 months. But I haven't seen anyone who actually has completed the cert give a review or time estimate of how long it took.

[bjcheung77]

It doesn't take 6 months that long, if you read their info it'll tell you people who spend 4 hours/week will take as long as 6 months on average. If you do 4 hours a day, that's a different story, it all depends on how much effort and work you put into it, in addition to time... For those who have prior knowledge and are speed demons, it may take as less as a week or two, on a more conservative average, I would say a month or two, not 6 months.

Hello, 

Did these transfer into TESU for credit? If so do you mind sharing what they transferred in as? 

I reached out to academic advising and this was the reply I got. I am currently taking IBM Data Analysis and Visualization Foundations, and was going to try and transfer it in with some Sophia.org courses and see what happens. 

However after the advisors reply, I can't tell if they're just un-informed. Or if TESU no longer takes Coursera certifications? In my email I called out using credly. 

Advisor reply: 
"Nov 30, 2024

Good morning,
As it stands, TESU does not accept Coursera items for direct credit transfer. These course are often used in preparation for credit-by-exam (TECEP) options but are not credit bearing. 

Thank you"

Thanks so much! This is really good to know. 


Do you have any idea where DSI-200 Interpretive Data Analysis, DSI-299 Special Topics in Data Sci/Analyt, and DSI-399 Special Topics in Data Sci/Analyt.

Would they work towards an AAS in Applied Computer Studies ? I am looking for one more CIS or COS elective. Currently doing introduce to python on Sophia for one of them. Kind of hoping one of these can be applied towards that area. 

Don’t think that advisor will be much help lol! He was sassy when I was saying I'm confident they're accepted for transfer. 

P.s Thanks again! I was gonna do my own post then saw this. Really appreciate y’all for sharing your experiences.
