Sophia Project Management - YIKES!
#11
There are 220 questions for Project Management, you get 3 attempts at 120 of them.

I initially found the multiple tutorials a bit irritating, and preferred the Sophia 'Written Tutorial'. I only really looked at the tutorial if I didn't pass the challenge quiz on the first attempt.

I'm not saying it's unreasonable - just that it didn't really click with my son, who has a very linear, black-and-white brain. I don't know where he got it, because I'm all over the place and all shades of grey. He just has a mental block when it comes to this format.
Here Researching for my son, who has done the following:
Community College: Intro to Philosophy, Fundamentals of IT, English Comp 1
Saylor: Intro to Business, Principles of  Marketing, Corporate Communication
Shmoop: US History 2 (WGU won't accept this)
ALEKS: Int. Algebra, College Algebra
Study.com: Personal Finance, Principles of Finance, HR Management, Global Business, Advanced Operations Management
Straighterline: US History 2, Environmental Science, US History, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, English Comp 2, Principles of Management, Business Law, Business Ethics, Psychology, Organizational Behavior, Accounting 1,Communication, Managerial Accounting, Statistics
Ed4Credit: Managing Information Systems
Sophia: Project Management
WGU: Bachelors in HR Management 

Second son is currently attending Penn Foster for his high school diploma, then on to Ashworth for An Associates in Criminal Justice

Thank you for sharing your son's experience. Sophia courses are self-paced, so it sounds like he is taking advantage of that format to complete the course by a specific date. Yes, the ability to schedule the proctored final opens up once the second-to-last unit summative test is completed, but there is an option with ProctorU to schedule a same-day appointment if needed. Many Sophia students chose that option in order to meet certain due dates or deadlines.

We hope your son did reach out to the Sophia Learning Coaches for support during his course, either with content/test issues, or general questions about format, requirements and completion. We are here to help and can be reached via phone, Live chat or email at learningcoach@sophia.org

Thank you!
