Nutrition and meteorology would be amazing.

It's not on your list, but I would also love to see some anthropology and/or ethnobiology, or even historical ecology. The Sophia learning environment has, for me, been the best way to get information into my brain, so to be honest, I will probably take any interesting course they offer.

American government & some psychology electives would be nice. Upper level courses are what we need most but I also think an intro to cinema & intro to music would be amazing to see - I’ve never seen those 2 anywhere in the CBE ecosystem.

It would be amazing if they include Com Sci courses. I am sure there is demand for it

I've had a few criticisms of Sophia since I started their courses, but it's been an overall positive experience and I do wish that they had even more offerings. Intro to computers/programming would be nice, since the only place to go for that right now is SDC; it's nice to have options.

Because our host Instantcert ICC offers American Government and and Managerial Accounting for credit, I would not suggest them for Sophia. Instead, Introduction to Comparative Politics by Sophia would be appreciated. 

I would also like Sophia AND/OR Instantcert to add: Meteorology, Nutrition, Cultural Geography, Physical Geography, Anthropology to round out the Social Sciences, and Developmental or Lifespan Psychology. 

DSSTs that are impossible for me to take right now: Organizational Behavior, Intro to Criminal Justice, Human Resources Management.

I have a teen who has already started flight lessons who wants to be a pilot. Meteorology and geography are useful courses to get college level study earlier in training for a pilot.
