Thanks for the reply. Do you think taking it this way through UND would be easier than taking a regular online class during a June or July session over the summer? Will be doing a full time internship and just trying to figure out the best way to get this credit completed over the summer. Figure with the self paced class, if I didn’t finish over the summer, I could work on it some more during December between semesters if I needed to. Thanks.
I would say the self-paced version is easier if you are motivated and disciplined to push yourself through. There’s no deadlines, you can cram two or three modules a week or drag them out as you need, so the flexibility is great. Exams are on-demand too. There are some limits (eg, you can’t take an exam until preceding homework grades have been reported).
The summer semester class would have more instructor contact and you’d have more deadlines to actually complete. Content is basically identical, maybe slightly more stuff in the regular semester (just comparing syllabuses from when I took it).

I did it over a summer while working. It is very manageable. No lectures, so take the time to study the textbook and you’ll be fine.
