They've added, IIRC, 3 since last June (give or take). Business Law, Principles of Finance, Communication at Work. I have no idea why Art History II, The Essentials of Managing Conflict, and English Comp II have the "new" label. Conflict is at least 3 years old by this point. Maybe they redid it and that counts in their system?

TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA

Truth. But it also isn't "frequently" i.e. every month or so. 
Still, the thought of 3-4 new classes coming up is nice to know

I did a couple of free 1-credit courses with them in April 2017. I really might be wrong on this, but I feel like they had 10 or fewer classes back then and they were around $300 each?

So, they it seems they've added quite a few over the last couple of years, and they are certainly much less expensive. My hope is that they add at least 2 more interesting courses before the end of this year.

I wouldn't go by the word new being on a graphic. Some have said new for over a year.
