Consideration - Length of time UMPI Professors take to grade papers and projects

[lidel]

I had one course where the milestones were not affirmed until ages past, I just kept on trucking. 

Hooooonk, Hooooonk.

You do sort of need a battle plan when doing some of these CBE programs. 

UMPI, based on feedback, seems pretty good. The worry for some might be getting all drafts submitted late Friday night, and Saturday/Sunday have 10 hrs available each day and no courses open.

Yup, I was able to get past any minor hurdles by planning ahead and communicating with the UMPI Team. Some of the assessments were very detailed and would have taken a fair amount of effort to mark, and I can easily see how an instructor could get bogged down with them. UMPI was understanding of that and was always willing to work with me. They never said no to a reasonable request or workaround. In my case granting me the extra competencies allowed me to continue on and bought the instructor the time they needed to dig in and get their work done. Win-win.

It was a great group to work with.
