The official guide to courses by Straighterline, Study, et al: We want YOUR input!
Provider: Study.com
Course: Business 105: Labor Relations
Course content: standard study.com quizzes
Final exam format: 100 multiple choice
Final exam content vs course content/practice exams: The final is based on the course work
Time taken on course: about 8 days while working full time
Familiarity with subject before course: I run a business so I am relatively familiar
Pitfalls, high points, things others should know: Whoever wrote this course wrote it from the perspective of "there is never a reason not to have a union and nothing a union does is ever bad" so be ready for that. Gets a little eye-rolly when they're trying to tell you how having to pay everyone more money for less work is actually a good thing for business owners. Other than that it's fine. The case law section might trip a few people up. There is a ton of focus on arbitration, which fortunately I already knew about but if that's new to you then you might be in for a slog.
1-10 Difficulty level: 1-2 for me. If you just repeat "unions are the only path to salvation" in your head over and over while you take the final, all the answers are clear enough. The case law bit is just memorization.

Provider: Study.com
Course: Business 325: Union & Labor Relations
Course content: standard study.com quizzes & 2 written assignments
Final exam format: 70 multiple choice
Final exam content vs course content/practice exams: The final is based on the course work
Time taken on course: 1 day
Familiarity with subject before course: I run a business and had just finished Business 105
Pitfalls, high points, things others should know: After you finish Business 105 it fills in all but 20 quizzes of this one, so you might as well go ahead and take it. It's written from more of a pro-business slant than the LL course is (this is common with Study.com LL/UL combos) so this one focuses more on the defects of unions and illegal things they've done, etc
1-10 Difficulty level: 2. If you just did the LL one the day before this is simple
