I definitely will.
On a separate note, is there any order I should take each of these courses in? Does ordering the courses make any difference at all?
Order really makes no difference. Also Ashkir's assessment of 469 is much different than I experienced this session. The milestones were very quick 2-3 sentence answers. The final focused on strategic communication to further a company's goals. A blend of paper, powerpoint and presentation. It was my favorite course at UMPI. It isn't the capstone, that is 489.
I finished 11 courses at UMPI, and a Google Coursera PM Certification in 4 weeks time. I was dedicated and diligent. I also am a leader and executive professionally, which contributed greatly to having contextual experience I could easily write about.
Attaching my full degree plan here. I started out planning to do BABA Management & Leadership. I changed to BLS, Management, Business Administration, and Project Management minors.
