of ceiling wax and cabbages and kings: certification of completion question from the faq...

reference: https://www.logos.com/mobile-ed/faq - specifically point number one. Complete all Mobile Ed courses for the program of study. This includes viewing all videos and taking all quizzes.

I currently own 76 (as I recall) Mobile Ed courses.  I have completed more than a few.  the challenge I have is that once these are in my library, how do I know what a "program of study" is?  I have purchased some groups of courses, that may have been titled a particular program if study, but they are not organized or sorted in the courses tool, or in the library.  Further exasperating is that I have also purchased many courses ad-hoc, as individual courses.

How do I know what the courses are for a "program of study"?  I wouldn't mind having certificates of completion, but when I have no way to know what those categorizations include, it makes it rather difficult to complete the rest of the listed bullets in the requisite items for Faithlife/Logos review.  

Is there an option for certificate based on each individual course?  Don't mind doing a 750 word essay for each (though it will be a challenge to get it all in ONLY 750 words for each course) course.

    You can see which specific courses are in different Programs of Study here: https://www.logos.com/mobile-ed/programs-of-study. Dynamic pricing should work if you already own some courses that are in a particular program. At this point we only have plans to offer certificates for completion of a program. We plan on promoting these certificate programs more widely in the coming months.

    Great. thank you.

    more questions...

    SO I was looking at these two:

    And they seem to be the same, except the intermediate has a few more courses. It appears that fundamentals is prerequisite for intermediate, but does not specify.  If I fulfill the requisite for fundamentals and email that information in, then later complete the other/extra courses for intermediate, do I only need to turn in the extra essays, for intermediate? sorry that this may seem a simple thing, but there is no specific information laid out as to how these work (that I can find).

    Correct, the different levels (Foundational, Intermediate, Advanced) are progressive and build off of each other. All the material in a Foundational program (both courses and extra reading resources) will be included in the corresponding Intermediate and Advanced programs.

    It appears that fundamentals is prerequisite for intermediate, but does not specify

    Because all the Foundational courses are included in the Intermediate program, the Foundational program isn't necessarily a prerequisite. Someone doesn't need to buy Foundational first, then buy Intermediate (although with dynamic pricing, they wouldn't be penalized for doing so).

    If I fulfill the requisite for fundamentals and email that information in, then later complete the other/extra courses for intermediate, do I only need to turn in the extra essays, for intermediate?

    You could submit work like you described, or just skip the Foundational certificate and submit all your work for the Intermediate certificate.

    That should be "sealing wax."  See Lewis Carroll's "The Walrus and the Carpenter."
