It looks like a reasonable itinerary for the students of Central Washington University. Buen camino to those who go.

Wish the students who go well and a Buen Camino.

I suppose that this is similar to receiving a "credit" on your CV from potential employers (there somewhere is another thread on this subject)

I don't see it that way, this is a real course a out the Camino, be it history, théologie, architecture, sociology.the académic content is something I miss when I walk, the CF in particular. The univeristy of Navarra also offers a course, but I think the walk is much shorter. Walking the last 100km by school kids is just a school outing, not part of the reaching curriculum per say.

They do! I got my degree in Pilgriming from them

So it seems to be confirmed: walking a Camino has its academic benefits. Thus also the Compostela should be beneficial on a CV.

No, only of you have take the course that comes with it. Other than that, summer camp.
