The provider says how many credits they think it is, but ACE (or NCCRS) decides the ultimate credit recommendation.
That makes sense

I find it interesting that the Web Development is ID # ACE ID: SOPH-0043

Their last "true new one" was ACE ID: SOPH-0034 which is Communication at work. Before that ACE ID: SOPH-0033 was Principles of Finance... 41 is IT Career Exploration.

What are the other numbers? :O

Hopefully they're classes in the final stages of their ACE review and will be incoming soon.

For the BACS for TESU - These courses can be used for general education or free electives and the lower level requirements of the AOS if accepted... and that's a big if for the IT exploration, for the Web Development course, it's a high possibility for LL AOS.

Another possible new one that I just noticed is Writing Fundamentals. This appears to be a remedial/developmental/non-credit English class. It would transfer into Strayer as ENG090 https://strayer.sophia.org/online-courses/writing-fundamentals
This appears to be different from the normal Foundations of English Composition.


RE: New Sophia course incoming? - TINASAM - 03-10-2021

WOW already finished Web Development, lol.
no practice milestones. 9 challenges 3 milestones. only a couple questions each.
Under 30 minutes from start to finish.

Yeah I saw that. I wonder what the point of having 2 separate remedial English comp courses is. Probably built the new one to satisfy some specific goals.

Nice. Looks like I'll knock out another course before my subscription ends.

<sigh> I can't work on the class until I finish the two in my dashboard... oh wells, just gotta wait until one of these are done first...


RE: New Sophia course incoming? - TINASAM - 03-10-2021

I was lucky that I finished Conflict Management just a few minutes before seeing it pop up! I was actually browsing for a new one to put in the slot when I saw it.
