Capella Shares Lessons Learned from 5 Years of Offering Competency-Based Programs

[sanantone]

Just for additional insight:

I took two courses under Capella's Flexpath program and TESU would not accept either course. (TESU considered them PLA type courses). Capella's program is also not a mature and complete system like WGU's and was probably the worst college experience I've had involving online learning. (I did, however, know what I was getting into beforehand.) Just logging into courses or tracking progress was a chore so I'm unsure how they would successfully allow students to enroll in either traditional or CBE courses as needed. And, as to be expected from a for-profit school, they attempted to charge me for leaving the program. (Keep your paperwork in order.)

Hmmm. TESU gave me credit for an Empire State College PLA. They also give credit for other schools' challenge exams .
