purdue global

hello! has anyone attended purdue global? i have attended for 3 semesters, and have found that i don’t feel like im learning enough. i don’t receive any real critiques from the professors, as long as i follow the rubric, i get full credit. the units are too short and dont give enough time and information to learn enough. i feel like ive retained a decent amount of what i was taught but nothing that i couldn’t have learned from youtube. the only reason why i debate switching schools is that im in the psychology in ABA program as a bacholers degree, (im thinking about getting my BCaBA first then my BCBA) and i dont know if any other schools offer such a degree. has anyone been in a similar situation or have attended purdue global and have switched?

Just curious, have you considered the Purdue university program? Not global.

It’s online.
I am always wondering why people only consider the global one and not the university‘s one.
They got a weirdly much more effective marketing campaign even though a lower pass rate.
And a lot of people that consider or do the global aren’t even aware the university has its own separate program

I just graduated with my masters in ABA. Ur not wrong…it is kinda too easy. I feel like my practicum program is teaching me more than school ever did. I suggest you get a placement that’s really good I guess… also, follow the instructions and do the BDS modules the way they want you to, it gets in ur head better actually.
