You’ll have a great re-introduction to the writing process and you will have done it on your own time without having to spend a bundle.
And it’s all graded RA credit, if you need to use it.
Can you point me toward the Clackamas APA courses? I tried to find it myself, but kept going in circles.

This was prior to official transcript evaluations. I pointed out I already had us history I and Ii through Sophia and they said "I'm sure you'll get credit when we finish evaluating your transcripts," and waived those. I still need Texas Government/polisci. So it'll be 11 classes/33 credits.
Seem to be no other hiccups.
But for now I'm very much leaning against doing the program as I just think I won't have time due to increased work commitments/potential promotion.
That’s pretty much what I found too. I emailed them and was told that the Sophia History classes ARE approved to cover the history classes. I have US History 2 covered, but I would need US History 1. I also have the US Government class covered. I think it is on my short list of potential options.
