Provider: Sophia.org
Course: Business Communication
Course Content: Text tutorials with lesson quizzes, unit tests, and four assignments. This was the most assignments of any Sophia course I've taken, but each was relatively short.
Final Exam Content: No cumulative final exam for this course.
Final Exam Content vs Course Content/Practice Exams: Not applicable.
Time Taken On Course: The challenges and milestones in this Sophia course were pretty short, so the course material was only about 3 hours. The four touchstone assignments added another 2 hours.
Familiarity With Subject Before Course: Extensive, coming from the business world and having been a professional speaker.
Pitfalls, High Points, Things Others Should Know: Don't be afraid of the four touchstones. They look a bit daunting at first, but they go pretty quick. The first one actually took the longest. On the last one, the oral presentation, don't overthink it. Just use one of the example topics they provide, and then Google up some material to use for writing a script. I recorded mine just using Zoom (even a free Zoom account has local recording capability).
1-10 Difficulty Level: 3, just because of the quantity of assignments
