To avoid starting yet another South thread, I wanted to post here if that's cool. I started my DBA program at South a few days ago on the 1st. I have completed the first competency (of five) in each of the first two courses: leadership and ethics. The ethics course's paper format requirements were different to what I have been used to and I spent quite a while on my first summative for it, but I'm better used to it now. It's only been a couple days, but I'm enjoying it so far. I'm hoping to get these two courses done this month and get all of the first eight or nine done in six, if possible, but I won't lose my mind if I don't.
I've seen people question the school because of its CBE format. That's fine; it isn't for everyone. I of course had the option to go to a more traditional doctoral program and take three to six years to get the qualification. Heck, I still might go for a more traditional one after this one is finished, but I wanted to experience CBE once in my life and this school is giving me the opportunity to do that and earn an accredited doctoral degree to boot. I'm really hyped up about it and can't wait to see how it progresses.
