The other commenter is right. She might not be nice about it but this is a well documented system. This is from 4 years ago: [https://www.wsj.com/us-news/education/that-fancy-university-course-it-might-actually-come-from-an-education-company-11657126489](https://www.wsj.com/us-news/education/that-fancy-university-course-it-might-actually-come-from-an-education-company-11657126489)
