I see they still only have 2 courses available in the grad program and 0 in the undergrad... and I haven't seen any updates in a while. Hopefully they don't abandon this project since I definitely wanted to complete the grad and undergrad certificates and get them transcripted.

I have thought about completing the graduate program, but all of the courses haven't been released and they are really behind schedule in releasing them. So I'm waiting to see if they actually release all of the courses.

I don’t think there is any risk that they will not release them all.  They intend to release them in many different languages.  They could be working on some of the other translations as they go along.

I have just been going through the bootcamp for now.  I have been going through it pretty slowly depending on what else I have going on.  I still have access to it, but I noticed today that it also says it was archived in October 2022.  I don’t really understand why it says that.

They haven't released anything in quite some time. Originally it sounded like a course would come every 2 months. We've had 2 of the courses so far. That's it. No other languages seem to have been added. There's been no communication from them either. It's all just very strange.

That’s not true.   They have mentioned it recently on LinkedIn (and probably other platforms I am not on).   They posted recently, “Now available in Arabic, English, French, Spanish,Swahili and Portuguese at no cost to the learner!”.   They also share periodically about their activities in other countries.   On January 18th, they will be talking about the program at the Global Innovation Summit.  It’s not going away.  It’s a slow roll out.  I would also imagine that we are not their target market, so their activities may be focused in places we might not see.

It shows the same for me:

Global Entrepreneurship & Innovation Virtual Bootcamp (Archived October 2022)

However, the other two seem okay:

Global Entrepreneurship and Sustainable Business
Global Leadership and Personal Development

It’s not just about them, they are just one of a bunch of panelists.  https://www.globalchamber.org/events/202...mmit-2023/

The delay may be related to them partnering with an edtech company that will use Canvas for the new platform for the courses in the program. That was sometime in the fall after the 2nd module of the advanced courses came out.

I haven't received anything from them in months. I haven't seen the new languages. These are all part of the original 40 they listed so to me this isn't really new. 

It's beyond a slow rollout. A course every 2 months hasn't happened. At that rate, it would have taken 10 months to roll all 5 courses out. Been longer than that. I was originally hoping to complete the certificate and transfer those grad credits, but it took too long. I complete and entire MBA before this program was even finished being released which seems crazy.

Oh, look, they finally added a language menu with 9 languages. Looks like only boot bootcamp available in most
