So, I'm a bit confused what the final goal is here. If you're looking to incorporate these newly added ACE/NCCRS credits into a transcript to "show" potential schools you've done the work, then the Excelsior/TESU credit banks will do, as I mentioned, I wouldn't go that route as it's expensive, but you can apply for a second degree as a workaround, and skip it, just get the transcripts with all the courses you have and treat that as a credit bank for much cheaper.
This is just a guess from what I am reading, as the information isn't sufficient to provide you a better analysis of possible providers or schools that may grant these credits. Anyways, like Rachel83Az mentioned, and dfrecore reminded you, the best option may in fact be taking the UNA courses. It's just that the page doesn't indicate if these are truly self paced, it seems more semester based. If cash isn't a problem, and those courses offered by the program is sufficient, then go for it... If you can provide us more info on exactly what is required, it maybe easier for us to help you further.
Having said that, without knowing more info on your previous BA, your current budget, commitments, work experience, time management, etc. I would do things differently than what was mentioned. Depending on what you need and when you need the courses completed, for the undergrad level, I would recommend taking BA Accounting or BABA Accounting courses at UMPI. For graduate level courses, I would advise MSC Accounting courses at WGU, both are competency based and if you're looking to get CPA, there are information on the WGU page for each state.

I'm going to guess that UMPI and WGU don't allow you to take whichever courses you want, meaning you're going to be taking courses in the order they want - but that's just a guess.
The good thing about UNA is that they are self-paced (there's a video on there that explains how it works). I would just call them and ask what the format is for the program, and see if you can get a sample of the courses. Nothing to lose.
I'm going to guess that UMPI MAY let you just take 3 courses that you want during the first (and only) term, and then you'd just have those 3 courses on a transcript. But I don't think they're video-based lessons.
