Tech Degree Vs Other Subscription Models

Hi everyone,

I was curious to know: are all of the courses/content/video (outside of the projects, private channel, etc) that consist in the tech degrees available on the cheaper subscription versions Treehouse as well? For example, if I look at the Front-End Web Development track, the amount of hours required is significantly less than the estimation for the Tech Degree.

What's the difference in terms of content? Also, it appears that all of the recommended "tracks" have significantly less content (in terms of required hours) than what the Tech Degrees state.

What exactly am I not understanding? :) Thanks everyone!

With the tech degree you get curated program of courses (that you also get with the basic and pro subscriptions)... but you get a dozen or so projects to create that are assessed by industry experts. So you can create a portfolio you can show off to employers. So not only will you get a tech degree you can put on your resume, you also get examples of work you can show off too. You get the work, the experience, assessed work so you know where you're at and 1:1 mentoring too.
