I'm really enjoying it. The online, self-paced environment fits in with my work demands and family time, but I'm still able to accelerate somewhat. I'm finishing up this first term with 22 CUs (you are required to take a minimum of 12 per each six-month term), so I'm not one of the amazing stars doing 50-60 per term, but I've already truncated six months off of the original schedule. And this was done while still taking classes at Study.com and working on other certifications outside of the WGU program, such as VMware VCP-DCV6 and I just finished Splunk Fundamentals I, so I'll be taking the Splunk Certified User exam in the next couple days. The only complaint I have is that some of the class material is lacking, but the free access to Lynda and Pluralsight makes up for those shortcomings.

I passed C246 (Cisco exam 100-105 Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices Part 1) today. That earns me the CCENT certification, and, most importantly, I am down to 13 classes for my degree!
