* Only the final Touchstone of Introduction to Networking is graded. The other 5 Touchstones build up to/combine to create the final Touchstone. When considering grading time, this can be seen as a course with a single Touchstone.

† Introduction to Relational Databases does not have a Touchstone because the entire course can be considered to be a Touchstone. Almost every question requires students to query the sample database. While not especially difficult, this can be tedious and time-consuming. Students who are searching for a quick and easy class may want to consider a different source.

Introduction to Web Development is accepted by WGU as C779. The WGU version of this course has historically been reported to be more difficult than the Sophia version.
