Free Course at Shaw Academy
#1
Just passing this on, for T-Mobile customers they’re offering a free course at Shaw Acdemy today. Apparently only international accreditation but hey, it’s free.

I saw that and browsed through a bit. I didn't see anything that seemed to be of college level/academic merit.

But hey there are a few interesting things I may look into if it's free.

Yes, free stuff is great, they have this link: https://try.shawacademy.com/one-free-course#courses
Technically, courses are free (all of them). The timer keeps restarting each time you go to their site.
I assume they treat you to these 4 week courses and offer paid courses for a better/longer program.

I doubt any of them are worth credit. All the ones I browsed through said they took ~8 hours.

I kind of looked at this and it looks like the free courses are the hook and then you have to pay for the advanced courses. These appear to be another four weeks of the same subject, but more advanced. That seems to be what is accredited. There seem to be a lot of negative reviews related to this place.

Sorry to be slightly off topic, can you check your PM?
