My Questions


1. Where does it say this is only for Florida residents?
2. Can these courses transfer into other MBA programs? Or undergrad?

There is a form that was shared earlier in the thread.  The form states that it is only for Florida residents.  Also, while I can see most of the courses listed and you can go through the content and get the free certificate, you can not self-enroll for the program nor the proctored exam.  It is “hidden” behind an invite-only.  

Whether the courses are transferable would be completely up to the school that would be taking them in.  Since there is no accreditation, I would guess that it is unlikely at this time.  Also, as I was reading through the handbook, I noticed that is said that they do not accept outside credits.  The program has to be totally completed through them.
