Hi Everyone,
I enrolled into the Google Project Management to transfer to UMPI. I finished the first course 1 and got a "Foundations of Project Management" certification, however I see 6 other courses.
Would I need to complete all of 6 courses in order to get the full credit?

That's correct, you have to complete everything to get the ACE credit, otherwise, you'll just get a cert of completion for each of these and it would not be worth any college credit.

@GoBroncos95 - Keep in mind that it has been suggested here (by those who have completed it) that if you're pursuing the PM minor that you may be best serviced taking all the courses at UMPI. The reason is they all build off each other, so the project you start in the first course moves to the next step in those that follow. If you skip a course or two in the course series you may actually make it harder on yourself. You may want to create a separate post on this, as things may have changed since they moved to the new platform (making my post now moot).

This is no longer the case. Once the move to Brightspace happened, the courses changed.

So would you recommend the course be taken at UMPI or transferred?

The Google cert covers more than just 1 course. You get credit for BUS141 and BUS400 and additional elective credit. Sophia gives you credit for BUS141 only.

Whatever you want to do. The Google cert transfer as multiple courses. If you're taking it for free, why not just get the free credits?
