I'm currently doing the Survey of World History course (though I got it before the promo code Sad ) I will give review when I finish, hopefully on Sunday.
Goal: BA/BS in Psychology

Wow, l8989v, you certainly are booking it through all your courses! Since you already have Survey of World History, you could add the IT Fundamentals class as CIS-107 and it would not duplicate your COS-101 Intro to Computing from Study.com.

You could use it along with Environmental Science to complete your Understanding the Physical and Natural World requirements in the General Education component.

It takes days for the course progress to be reflected on SL since they aren't the ones actually offering the coursework. One more reason to avoid the course.

Is the IT Fundamentals a bad course in terms of quality?

That is the overwhelming impression I'm getting. If you have a place in your degree plan for HIS-127 Survey of World History, I would choose that instead.

Gotcha. Wow. I was hoping to use it to shore up my Small Business tech skills.

Guess I'll use the free TEEX courses instead. Thanks!

Would it be an option to take both courses? If you use the coupon twice?
For example, pay for one course and use the coupon IT Fundamentals.
Then pay for another different course and use a second coupon for History?

Nope. It's only for one course, if you try to use it on another it won't work.
