Need Advice on Degree Completion Plan

Degree Services LLC - Interpersonal Communication ADS-0003 CR 3
I'm guessing you won't get these on Credly since I don't think this organization exists any longer?

The Institutes - Ethics and the CPCU Code of Profess AICP-0121 CR 2
You for sure won't get this onto Credly

Kaplan Uni Open Learning - Documenting Your Experiences KUOL-0001 CR 3
I have these courses, I could never get ahold of someone to get this onto Credly (they've since been sold)

NFA
Fire Service Supervision: Self Study NNFA-0145 CR 1
Hydraulic Calculations for Water-Based NNFA-0203 CR 1
Self-Study Course for Community Safety NNFA-0149 CR 1
Not sure if you can get these on Credly, I haven't heard that anyone has.

TEEX
These should get to Credly

With very little RA credit and ~37cr of ACE, it looks like EC is your best option out of the Big 3 (I think it works out to be about the same price as COSC after getting the RA credit you'll need there).  Cost at EC will be ~$4000 for 7cr.

The other cheapest option is UMPI, which will probably be ~ $2800-$4200 for 2-3 terms there, which is what most people here seem to be doing (so no guarantees, but this is what the vast majority have been able to do without killing themselves in the process; so it's just very doable for most).

If you want to do competency-based, do UMPI's BLS with whatever minor you choose; if you don't want CBE, then do EC's BSL.  Both are very flexible and manageable (very easy to find the UL credits you need for EC).

Thank you,

I sent many emails in the last three days:

Let's not give up so easily.

I'll look at UMPI today.

Thank you so much for your help.

They're not giving up easily. People have tried since ACE transcripts moved to Credly to get some of these credits into badges and got absolutely nowhere. Many were simply told we're not doing it. This has gone on for months and months. Kaplan credits were gone. You're the first person who's gotten Kaplan credits on here. The Institutes are also gone. NFA credits have been a real struggle. The transition to Credly was VERY rocky and a nightmare for MANY people. Lots of people lost a TON of credit.

I remember three years ago when I was researching ACE, they said on their website that they would keep the records for 20 years. I'm going to hold them to it if I can. I'm preparing an email to send some of the leaders of the organization. Maybe it will work.
