Long Term Sophia Users, Got a Question - TINASAM - 03-09-2021
I see "New" by a few of the courses. How often does Sophia get in new courses? A few a year? A few a month?

They've added, IIRC, 3 since last June (give or take). Business Law, Principles of Finance, Communication at Work. I have no idea why Art History II, The Essentials of Managing Conflict, and English Comp II have the "new" label. Conflict is at least 3 years old by this point. Maybe they redid it and that counts in their system?

Ahhh so very rarely do they have new things.
Thank you for the insight

Truth. But it also isn't "frequently" i.e. every month or so.
Still, the thought of 3-4 new classes coming up is nice to know

I did a couple of free 1-credit courses with them in April 2017. I really might be wrong on this, but I feel like they had 10 or fewer classes back then and they were around $300 each?
So, they it seems they've added quite a few over the last couple of years, and they are certainly much less expensive. My hope is that they add at least 2 more interesting courses before the end of this year.

If they would add American govt to their menu you could essentially get all your gen ed through them.

I wouldn't go by the word new being on a graphic. Some have said new for over a year.
