I am now taking two online college courses with the C-19 extra time at home. - Life Long Learning - 04-07-2020
I am now taking two online college courses with the C-19 extra time at home. I had to cancel two plane trips (April and June) due to the C-19. I hate just sitting around. I was enrolled in one class. As soon as I saw the Nation shutting down I added a second class to occupy my time after work. I am not going to any place in the next 8-weeks other than work.
Anyone else using this time wisely?

I've even got my husband to sign up for some courses and have the littles doing science with my old Straighterline box.

I'm currently unemployed so I was quite excited to hear about the free courses from Sophia. It’s nice to have some mental stimulation among the other home and personal projects, bingeing movies, and daily walks. I’m on my 4th course with them and am really enjoying it - well, mostly. I’m in macroeconomics right now and that’s not so fun! lol

Yeah, I signed up for Sophia as well, taking about 7-8 courses I haven't touched before. Project Management, I was going to sign up for it at Study.com just when the deal started. So I shifted gears towards Sophia and signed up for PM, Visual Communications, Art History I & II, Ancient Greek Philosophers, Conflict Resolution, Intro to IT and the College Readiness as I didn't get the chance to do the free 1 credit course. I have finished two out of that list already, so 6 more to go?

Yes! I'm working from home so I am taking Udacity courses on Full-Stack Development, Cloud DevOps and Machine Learning. I was using the free trial so I have until the 24th to do them, but I only have the capstone left for the DevOps course and I'm halfway through the Full-Stack course.
I'm also working on finishing my degrees, but my signature says most of that. I'm trying to actually learn Linear Algebra again, rather than cramming, since I already took it at CC, but TESU wouldn't accept it for UL.
And on top of all this, I'm taking advantage of the now-online certification exams. While studying for the Comptia Security+ and CISSP exams for work, my Software Engineer partner and I are also planning to do a virtual study dates for the AWS Developer Certification

LOL, and I thought I had a pretty set of "courses for studying during COVID-19" but looking at the number of things on amaquiling's plate... wow, you've got so much more on your plate than I, impressive!
