Anyone have idea about final of these classes - Sara143 - 01-31-2023

Bus 401 project management ( what’s final paper or project)
Bus 440 bus analytics ( what’s final)
Bus 469 strategic professional communication ( what’s final) 
Can I take any of these classes at study.com or Sophia?
Thanks

BUS 440 is an IBM certificate on Coursera. https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Coursera It is currently suggested to take the Coursera certificate rather than the class.

Bus 440 is an exam.

400 + 401 are the project management application courses with Professor Dorsey. You basically reuse the plan you made in intro to project management for 400 and make a new one for 401 using the project management plan template youve created. These are the two fastest courses I took at UMPI
440 - Multiple Choice Exam
469 - You make a communications handbook for the final. Extremely simple.

IMO these are some of the fastest, simplest, most straightforward classes to take at UMPI

The final for BUS440 is reportedly easy, yes. But the current professor can apparently be difficult to work with and being able to complete the milestones may be more difficult than the exam.

I recently tried to do the IBM cert, and it seems like they recently changed one of the courses, and now none of the labs work properly in the 5th course. It isn't a user error because I had my Dad check it, and he said that it was not supposed to work that way (he works in IT and has done similar courses.)

I would not recommend that cert to anyone. It's really a shame because it could be a good alternative to BUS 440 otherwise.

BUS401 is a project with Professor Dorsey (or whoever is teaching it now) - it's not on Strut. 

BUS440 is an exam

BUS469 is an employee handbook that you write

BUS440 can be completed on Coursera as a certificate program. It's faaaaar longer than the UMPI course and waaaaaay more work. that's the only way to complete any of these courses. You also need to take 10 courses at UMPI. There's no way around that requirement.

Completely agree. BUS400, 401, and 469 were really easy and fast. I spent more time on 440 just because I had to study. I didn't find the exam difficult.

I suggest just submitting what you have anyway, my stuff magically went through. I completed the IBM certificate yesterday. YES, its way more work, but its worth a try if the professor is being very picky.

i only completed about half of the course, so I don't think it will count. Your'e saying to submit it anyway?

A bit off topic I'm sorry, but is it possible to do double major of marketing and accounting at umpi?
