University of Wisconsin has a self-paced, competency-based program
#23
Degree going okay, despite my trying to get used to things. Just wanted to briefly add some notes about what I've experienced so far.

Outdated/Broken Links
In the resource documents, students are given links to various resources to use to study (as opposed to traditional lessons). I suppose this is similar to the UMPI history classes I've taken, except you go to the actual page rather than a copy-paste of the text.

Unfortunately, many of the links are outdated. I've had to use Wayback a considerable number of times just to access study resources that no longer exist. In my Intro to Diagnostic Medicine course, I've even had to add a Flash emulator Chrome extension just to be able to read certain vital resources.

So far, nothing has made studying impossible. I can still read everything I'm intended to, it's just that there's a lot more work to do in order to study the intended way. Courses need some updating big time.

Other Notes
On the bright side, because of the way courses are structured, you don't have to wait for teacher grading in order to proceed. Not that there'd be much to wait on anyway, considering there aren't actual lessons.

Also, the assignments themselves don't appear to be too demanding (at least yet).
