I finished my MAOL in just under 6 weeks (Fall 1 - 2024).   This is not easy breezy, I put in many hours every day. 

I've written about 50 papers/PowerPoint presentations, read many sources, watched many hours of YouTube videos on 2X, and applied tons of knowledge I already possessed from experience and books I've read.   I'm ever so grateful that most of my reading has been professional development/leadership focused.  That all helped me so much!

And now, my gift to you all, is this overview of the current day MAOL.  Certainly, this could change, but I did 10 courses, and I'm very happy with what I learned, the projects I got to do that I can immediately use in my career, and I enjoyed nearly every professor I had. 

Happy studies!!

My Overview of the MAOL w/ Course Overview and My Pace

My 18-year-old son is looking for a bachelor’s program in hospitality, tourism, or event management, preferably with regional accreditation and under 10K. He has completed almost all Sophia Learning courses for UMPI's BABA in Management & Leadership program, but unfortunately, he is too young to enroll.

Any suggestions?

Thank you!!!

Interesting indeed... Google Notebook LM created a podcast version of AI instead of the video options previously created, and this if 4 minutes vs the 1 minute video versions I created previously...  Link: https://notebooklm.google.com/notebook/f...34cc/audio

All I did was copy/paste the URL for the DegreeForum WIKI to UMPI & TESU, without anything else for them to use... Wow! What AI creativity and realism!
Here's my previous thread for the videos: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...ess-videos

This looks pretty cool.  A lot better than the weird stuff Google's Boston Dynamics was doing.

Kinda disappointed that Pierpont BOG now requires 12 institutional credits from Pierpont (Roughly $7-8k out of state). I wanted to help a family member finally get a college degree after so long. 

I found the BOG program at Eastern West Virginia Community College 

They require:
1. 60 credits total
2. Minimum 12 RA credit 
3. Minimum 3 institutional credits (Tuition is same for in state/out state?) - Roughly $600 for 3 credits 
4. They say that they take ACE and NCCRS credit but no specific language on Sophia, Study.com, Coursera, etc 
5. 1 year after high school (So 19 year olds can get this?)
6. Cannot have any associates/bachelors degree already


In Total (Example Plan) 
1. Sophia = $ 100x2 months = $200 for 48 credits
2. ASU UL = $425 x 3 courses = $1275 for 9 credits
3. EWVCC = $188 x 3 credits = $564 for 3 credits 

Total for BOG EWVCC = $2039

$2000 is not super great for what we're used to here at $350 for the Pierpont BOG 

Of course, the 9 other RA credits can be taken elsewhere such as Luna CC for $51/credit out of state (6 credits max per semester). 


If one uses Luna CC, the total cost could be potentially be $1070.00 . 

(I'm just a fan of super easy ASU UL self-paced courses).

Edit: They offer a few areas of emphasis with 15 credit requirements:
1. Administrative support
2. Business
3. Computer Information
4. Early Childhood Development
5. Information Technology

Let's say your graduate with a Bachelor's degree from TESU, but choose to stay enrolled in a second Bachelor's degree or Undergrad Certificate.

Then, you continue to submit additional credits through Credly. 

Would the transcript of your first Bachelor's degree be updated with the new credits, even years after you have graduated? Or is the transcript "finalized" (=fixed), never to be changed the moment you graduate?

Hello, everyone!

I looked at the schools on the list of competency based programs at the wiki (https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Co...d_Programs).
Now I'm considering transferring my AS to either of three universities: 

• University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee 
  - B.S. in Information Science and Technology (UW Flex Option)- $2,250 / 12 weeks
• Purdue University Global 
  - ExcelTrack® Bachelor of Science in Cloud Computing and Solutions- $2,500 / 10 weeks
• University of Massachusetts Global 
  - B.S. in Information Technology-Data Science (MyPath)- $3,300 / 24 weeks

Does anyone here have any experience with this program? I am in-state so this program would be fairly affordable for me.

Hi all. just a quick question here.  
looking at the spreadsheet here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1...=524351696

it shows that Sophia Eng Comp2 and Worplace Writing 2 BOTH cover the requirements for 1B 2C and 4B 

is this correct that they are interchangeable?   Does anyone have a suggestion as to which is quicker / easier?

from the number of challenges and the 1 less touchstone it looks like Workplace 2 would be the better choice

thanks!
