Advice for my 17 year old daughter with over 100 credits done... Computer/IT Focused.
#12
Nice Roadmap... Exactly what I thought, she's working on her Certs, Degree, Experience!  I would do things a little differently because she's starting off so young, there will be "repetitive" courses she's taking as some will overlap from her NA/RA studies, it won't really matter.  I would put it into 3 different areas for the roadmap, Certs, NA, RA (pretty much as you have done so already).

For Certs, in addition to the ones on the roadmap, I would get the ones she's interested from Coursera/TADA and if she needs, she can get ones that are part of the Coursera Plus membership.  These are inexpensive industry recognized certs from Coursera partnerships with Google/IBM, etc (IBM Cybersecurity, Full Stack Developer).  Link: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Coursera

For NA, as I mentioned in post #6, be open to CS/IT/Math/Stats, I also suggest continuing with UOP AS, BS, MS, ladder that to Data Analytics/Science with a WQU Masters Financial Engineering.  I would then use the NA/RA credentials to get an international Doctorate/PhD instead of an NA for cheaper, such as AMA University DIT for $6K USD.  If you have cash, change that to an Aspen Doctorate in Computer Science or something else from a DEAC institution.

For RA, continue with the same route as the roadmap, again post #6, open that to U of T-Austin, NYU, etc.  Also have a look at the options available on Coursera, EDX, that will provide similar Masters for the subjects mentioned, CS/IT/Data Science, etc.  You can then ladder that up to U of Cumberlands, or U Arkansas Little Rock, PhD.  Either will go for about $30K USD.
