2 Touchstones was too much. I had fun writing the government in my community, interest group was boring but very easy.

good
Workplace Communication Workplace Communication
by Khadria W. on November 18, 2025
This course was okay. Just a heads up, the final touchstone requires a video submission. So if you dont like to be seen or record, that last touchstone is going to be difficult.
Business Law Business Law
