Just took a domestic violence and substance abuse course. It is 1 credit and may be repeated up to 4 times. From my understanding the content doesn't change. I finished the course in a day. There are 4 assignments due over 4 weeks. A 100 word summary and a 1 paragraph reflection. The readings are 1-3 pages long per week. The final was easy if you've read the material and the course is graded on a P/F basis. I scored a 78% on my final which was out of 25 questions.
They have quite a few of these courses available and should fit in well with COSC Applied Behavioral Science degree.

Can you share a link to this course or the other courses like that? What's the price point on these courses?

So it's a 4 week maximum for the course, but you can finish early if desired? What does taking one of the courses up to 4 times do?

yes I got my grade two days after completion. What does it do? It gives you one credit in that specific course.

So you can get up to 4 credits in that one course? Or have 4 chances to retake it if failed? Just a tad confused, lol.

You can take it 4 times for 4 credits. Each pass counts as one credit. So 1,2,3,4
