How to use the new ACE system

[natshar]

The good part is this isn't for my degree. More just for personal purposes and possibly if I even get a second bachelor's down the road. My first bachelor's I didn't use any ACE (with the exception of CLEP/DSST but those are separate anyway).

But I have ACE credit I have earned since 2018 and I haven't sent any of it to TESU besides study.com. Probably should sent it earlier but I just didn't feel like paying the fee.

But still I did earn the credit and some of the ace credit cost me money so it would be nice to have on an actual college transcript.

This is why nobody should accept a situation going forward in which ACE does not acknowledge previously-earned recommendations in some transcript form.

I will give an example.  I earned credit recommendations previously from the Alternative Credit Project Ecosystem.  This was an in-house ACE program in which they partnered with organizations like edX, Ed4Credit, Straighterline, etc.  This was not simply recording credits earned at a separate institution.  This was a grant-funded program via the Gates Foundation in which ACE preemptively sought out these organizations for the ACPE.

These were actual ACE programs, not just credit recommendations.  There was no space between the partners and ACE.  They were completely intertwined.  I would make the argument that this is/was true in practical terms for all ACE-recommended credit.  No one would have taken most of these tests/classes/whatever except for the fact that they had an ACE recommendation.  ACE made money from the course providers.  The course providers made money from ACE.

I am not sure that we have actually seen what ACE will ultimately do about these orphaned credit recommendations.  However, it is not acceptable and is potentially fraud if ACE does not integrate these recommendations from defunct providers/systems into the new system.

I 100% agree. How do we contact them to explain this to the people at ACE?
