That's definitely designed to satisfy Strayer's econ requirement - their class has the same name. Unlike most schools, Strayer has just one required economics course. Neither macro nor micro work for their esoteric degree plans.

They have to publish more computer science courses they are focusing more in general education only.

Most schools are only going to accept GE credits from Sophia if they accept Sophia credits at all. That means most students wouldn't be taking anything but GE credits from them. It makes sense for them to focus on what is most profitable. Even if it's not what we want.

This is actually a Personal Finance course, which is probably why they won't accept an actual economics course for the requirement. What a wacky name for Personal Finance.

I guess already being a web developer paid off here. Completed Intro to Web Dev in like 30 minutes.

Please don't do that. Bragging how easy courses are doesn't help anyone. Sophia has a mix of difficulties as does any school. Some courses are very demanding.

Wasn't trying to brag. But it's very easy for anyone with experience in that field.

when I read the course title the first thing I thought was "personal finance"
I don't see what else it could possibly be
seems like a good name to me

He stated he was a Web Developer, so of course the class was easy. I'd expect that. I found the Management & Marketing CLEP exams easy, because I had 10+ years of work experience and courses already under my belt. It's always good to tell people your previous experience in something to explain "easy" which this poster did.
