Free professional certificates at Rasmussen

[Vle045]

Credly is not exclusive to ACE credits.  That free certificate from USF from last year issued a Credly badge.  Same with the non-credit LawShelf courses I took.

That USF certificate a bunch of us did last year became a $150 course to get the certificate after we took it. 

LawShelf is NCCRS. 

Who knows what will happen with Credly now that it's been sold to Pearson.

I never paid a penny for the USF Certificate.   I got the Credly badge, a printable certificate and added it to LinkedIn.   If you took it after the limited time free offering, then you would have to pay for the certificate similar to a handful of their other certificate offerings.

My LawShelf courses that I chose were somewhat related to the industries I work in and not eligible for credit.  I just wanted the pretty badges for my Credly profile and LinkedIn

I doubt Credly is going anywhere.  Perhaps a name change, if anything, but badges seem to be the “in” thing these days.
