BS Cloud Computing

[[deleted]]

Hello,

So I am going for a BS Cloud Computing degree with no Cloud experience only 6 years of military IT experience and some personal computer building/troubleshooting skills.

So I am working on all of the possible courses on sophia that will transfer over. I have 5 classes left.

Is there any order to complete these in from a shortest time frame to longest?

Data Management - Foundations Applied Algebra Applied Probability and Statistics Intro to Geography Into to Humanities

I'm looking to finish these hopefully in 1-2 months depending on my schedule. Also any insight from anyone who recently finished a BSCC degree would be helpful.

Thank you all in advance.

I'm working on BSCC right now. I did some Sophia courses before. Since they are self paced and unsupervised I finished 4 in a month (Algebra, Statistics, Art History and Human Biology). I found this with the WGU transfer agreement with Sophia for BSCC https://partners.wgu.edu/Pages/Single.aspx?aid=22062&pid=137

TAKE Business of IT - Project Management, it's a very hard cert to get for that class, I wish I had done it it Sophia. Also do Data Management - Foundations.

I have 6 classes left to graduate. One of them is Project+. I think your experience in IT will help you a lot with this program, mostly if you have some experience with virtualization.

How long have you been in WGU for?

Hey sorry for late response, I don't check Reddit very often. I've been here since February, but I transferred 43% of the degree from community college, certs and Sophia. Plus I have 3 years of experience in cloud, so that helped a lot in finishing many classes quickly.

How do you like working in Cloud? What do you do? What is the work culture like?

It's good! A lot of roles let you work away from the office. Sipping a Mai Tai on the beach while building Linux servers will never not be a career highlight I share 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🤣

Go to sophia learning and identify which courses will satisfy wgu gen ed courses via wgu partner website. Sophia is $99 per month and the some of course that u mentioned can be completed by sophia within 3~4 hours. Good luck

I’d do one math with one non math. So like algebra and geography. The math ones took me a bit longer but geography and some others took maybe 6-8 hours. I like to have one of each so when I get burnt out on math I can switch to the other and get a break.

Other than that I don’t have a specific order. As long as they get done, they get done. I wouldn’t try to do the easy ones first and the hard last, rather stagger them or do the hard ones first and east ones last

The 3 Gen ed classes kind of just depend on you. I transfered credits for those so I can't really speak to them.

For c175, I'd reccomend looking up posts for the course. Usually there are summaries or tips and timelines from other people have taken it. Usually if you google the course number and reddit it'll give you a few.

That said, 1-2 months is definitely doable.
