TEL learning for RA credits

[dbinghamjr]

Why would TEL Learning be considered RA credit? Genuine question. It's not a regionally accredited college which is what RA credit is from.

Their courses are transcripted via one of two universities (can't remember the names right now), not ACE or NCCRS, similar to an ASU EA or other independent study course.

But does that actually give you RA credit? I know EC does the transcripts for OnlineDegree.com courses, but you aren't given EC or RA credit. It's a transcript with OD's name and courses on it. 

ASU EA courses are taken directly from ASU though so that's why they're RA credit.

OnlineDegree's courses are NCCRS-evaluated, Excelsior just is willing to give you a transcript for them (I'm honestly not sure why OD doesn't just do this themselves, but whatever). The partner colleges for TEL Learning award the credit themselves (I guess it could be considered similar to a TECEP in that regard). Outlier.org (which partners with UPitt) is another example of this arrangement. What the credit granting university gets from the deal is beyond me.
