Earn College Credit With ACT
The American Council on Education (ACE) is the nation’s most recognized authority on evaluating nontraditional learning for transfer credit, known for reviewing and validating learning that happens outside of traditional classrooms and making recommendations that thousands of colleges and universities accept.
Advanced eClinical Training’s CCMA course is reviewed by ACE for credit recommendation eligibility. Students who successfully complete this program may be eligible to earn up to 6 college-level elective credit recommendations through ACE CREDIT®.
How to Earn & Transfer Your College Credit
1. Determine Eligibility
To be eligible for ACE-recommended credit, you must successfully finish the course, which means completing all required exams, assessments, and assignments.
2. Complete Your Course to Earn Credit
At ACT, all of our self-paced courses are affordable, flexible, and 100% online. You can take as much or as little time as you need to complete them. When you complete ACT’s ACE-approved CCMA course, you may become eligible to receive an official ACE transcript that lists the college credits you’ve earned.
3. Transfer & Complete Your Degree
Once you’ve finished your ACT course, you can request your ACE transcript and submit it to your college or university of choice. Your school will then evaluate your credits and determine how (or if) they apply toward your degree program. Students typically use ACT’s credits to accelerate their progress toward an associate or bachelor’s degree in healthcare-related fields.
Don’t Forget…
Though many colleges and universities across the U.S. consider ACE credit recommendations, transfer policies vary by institution, with credit acceptance and application toward degree programs determined by the receiving college or university. Look into your school’s guidelines online or contact the registrar’s office to confirm ACE credit acceptance.
