ASU to Launch a Free Global Initiative and enroll 100 million students

[Vle045]

I contacted tech support for the 100ML program. My situation was potentially unique, but he got on Zoom with me to walk through my issue and hopefully prevent others from having the same problems. He told me that they are working on making the sign-up process easier and also confirmed that they are planning to have all the graduate-level courses released by June. While I was at it, I mentioned that the Bootcamp was showing as "archived" in the title and he fixed that as well. I have been chipping away at the BootCamp, but I really want to get those graduate-level courses done too.

Has anyone completed everything that has been released so far?

Yep. I have worked ahead on those graduate courses and they have begun populating my badge page (Badgr). I think that they review the submissions in some of the courses so that does slow the process down. The accounting course seems good to build on previous skills but it isn't fully released yet. Overall, good experience.

Since I haven’t gotten very far yet, can you tell me if the courses have papers due similar to other graduate programs?  I am still on the bootcamp for now which is very basic.   I just want to know what I can expect as I move on to the other courses soon.

So the Personal Leadership course, which is the continuation of the bootcamp, has some written submissions that I think are 'affirmed' - though I haven't confirmed that.
Global Entrepreneurship and Sustainable Business is all quizzes (multiple choice)
The accounting course has been quizzes so far but it could be some written submissions (cannot see past lesson 2)


On Badgr, they show progress to the graduate diploma which is a good indicator that the courses do have a piece of paper for the wall.

I believe the only time a human looks at your projects/papers is when you apply for the actual grad credits. This obviously saves them a tremendous amount of labor since only a small percentage of students is likely to make it to the end and request credit.

That's what I am thinking too.  If I can manage to get through them - before the end of my MBA program, I will probably request credit.... if any seem transferrable.  My advisor said that the course has to be 75% similar in order to transfer, so it could be a crap shoot.

Thanks.  It seems like there haven't been full-fledged papers so far.  More like essays throughout.

Has anyone been able to access anything past module 7 in the Global Accounting course?

They have been adding them gradually.  The last time I spoke with someone at Thunderbird, he indicated that they should all be released by June.

There's really no option to rush into these, it's somewhat slow but a good supplement to whatever you're currently working on. Pace yourself in completing them...

It looks like this should transfer into thunderbirds Master of leadership and management. Total cost of the program is $39000. So essentially the masters would be $20k with the cert. transferred in.
