Curious if anyone has looked into this program? Looks like it would cost $525 for ten verified classes. Not sure of there is a way to translate it into college credit.

It's too new to know if it can be turned into college credit. The time commitment to learn the material is understated. The time estimates are okay for awareness of the material, where awareness is less than the ability to use the knowledge to solve a real world problem.
