ASU to Launch a Free Global Initiative and enroll 100 million students

I never used it but you may want to give this a try:

100MLSupport@thunderbird.asu.edu

HTH.

I still haven't received any response from this email or the Thunderbird admissions contact form. Does anyone have any other contacts I could try?

I gave up and started the student registration process over again using a different email address. The issue didn't occur this time, and I was able to complete the sign-up and get into Canvas. Concerningly, I never received any reply to any of the emails I sent ASU about the issue.

Ouch, seems like they're busy with so many applications and limited staff to get on any type of support... Hopefully it gets better with whatever they're doing and have enough staff/volunteers to get this more down pat...

Does anyone have an idea of when the final course will be out for this? I would love to do this program, but I don't want to invest the time for four courses if the fifth won't be coming out soon..

Thanks guys.

It has definitly been a very slow roll out.  I don’t think anyone here has any inside scoop on when they will launch the last course.  I can tell you that the way they have it set up, once you log in, you have access to all avalable courses.  You don’t have to sign up for them individually.  And they don’t have a set time table.  I’ve been chipping away slowly since it launched.  Since I am already in a degree program, it hasn’t been a priority for me.  But it has helped me in the degree courses I have been taking.  For instance, I worked on the one with marketing ahead of my marketing class.  And now I can work on the one with accounting ahead of my finance class.  Of course, I probably won’t be able to utilize the credits, but I can get I fun little badge for my LinkedIn account.

**When I logged in to the accounting class, it did say that they expect the final course to be launched by Fall 2023. Since that has already passed, let’s hope any day now.

Thank you for letting me know! I've decided to start this before I begin a double master's at ENEB, then whenever the final course is out, there will be plenty of us on here ready to knock it out!

That's what I recommend, complete the classes for the ASU cert first and then work on other things, you can continue with whatever else you're working on while waiting for the final class to come out. No one really knows when it'll come out except for staff at ASU...

I had a week off, and I really tried hard to like those courses to get the graduate certificate (best deal ever), I just can't get into those courses..

Just started working on this.  I noticed it says the last course will be available Spring 2024.  Stupid question,  where do I find the project for each course that gets graded if I want academic credit for the classes?  I'm trying to get an idea how long this all will take me.  I'm trying this as kind of a dry run for grad school.  Am also wondering how long it will take to get everything graded and the cert awarded once I finish all 5 classes....whenever that may be.

No one knows yet because we have to wait for all five courses to be released.
