Project Management

by Jerry K. on October 14, 2018

The course was filled with great information on the subject and easy to understand.

Art History I

by Jeff P. on October 14, 2018

I found this course very challenging but very intriguing at the same time. It would not normally be something I would take, but I am thankful I did!

Human Biology

by Random V. on October 14, 2018

VERY CHALLENGING. But learned more about human body and function. Everybody should take this course

Introduction to Business

by Matthew B. on October 9, 2018

Some typos in the info and a lot more videos/lectures than normal for a Sophia course. Still recommend this course if you want to get into Business. A lot of helpful information to use in Business and personal life.

Introduction to Statistics

by Brianna H. on October 8, 2018

Thank you!

Project Management

by Matthew B. on October 7, 2018

Great information here. I also recognized a lot of leadership lessons my current leasers use. I now have a greater understanding of the workings in my own business and hope to use them to further my career.

Introduction to Sociology

by eric w. on October 6, 2018

Informative. Information in each challenge is fully covered. I suggest reading the material then answering the questions. Very good course to take for any degree.

Approaches to Studying Religions

by samuel m. on September 29, 2018
