    It is 11 classes and starts in April 2014. Here is the curriculum. Tell me what you guys think. I am seriously thinking about this course. Of course this school requires group projects, e-books, and proctored exams, etc. I like regular books, and don't see why proctored exams are necessary at the master's level, and the idea of group projects is a bit annoying. I guess I could over those things. The cost is about $3500 every 6 months and you take as many classes as you want (so they say). Maybe a great student could finish this program in a year. A regionally accredited master's degree for $7000 if you can pull it off.:smokin:


    Course Competency Units

    I sure hope this information helps someone out. Maybe I will wait and let one of you guys start and finish the program and let me know how it works out for you before I try it. Good luck.

    Courses: MS Management and Leadership

    Sorry about the 2 posts. I thought I'd put the information on my 2 favorite forums because some people look strictly at certain forums like me. Forgive my overzealousness for cheap education.:saevil:

    I only had 2 group projects across 11 courses for my WGU MBA, no proctered exams....you write....a lot!

    You can go as fast as you like, the really smart ones with plenty of free time do it in 6 months. This particular program takes out the hardest courses from their MBA program. Thee is no finance, decision, or supply chain. That should really speed your progress, those three take a lot of time for most students.
