Purdue University Global's Open University Program

[innen_oda]

nearly 3/4's of a degree program for what amounts to less than a week of study (PHP cert), 2 months for the AWS cert, and 3/4 months for a CySA or the Azure Data Engineer cert are not a hell of a deal. There isn't another problem I've found that gives you that number of credits for so little work. Those count for one course EACH at WGU.

Indeed. This degree option is definitely one to keep an eye on.

And - fair or not - the Purdue brand name may be something that gets someone who otherwise would dismiss the other available options, to reconsider. Frankly, I'm all in favour of people getting their Bachelor degree, whatever path they prefer to take.
That fact that one option may not be good for any one of our personal circumstances doesn't therefore mean it's a bad option. Presenting multiple options, with full disclosure of what's involved in each (and cutting out the marketing BS) is what this forum is all about.
