# ROOT_ Program Duration Model
Phase 6E §28 — recalculated from actual authored activities in the live database. Run:
`SELECT c.course_id, SUM(a.estimated_duration_minutes) ... GROUP BY c.course_id` against the
current schema, same method as Phase 6D's original version of this document.
Phase 6F Step 25 (built on Phase 6E §28) — recalculated from actual authored activities in the
live database after Phase 6F's curriculum integration (orientation module + the three
practice-bank intro lessons). Run: `SELECT c.course_id, SUM(a.estimated_duration_minutes) ...
GROUP BY c.course_id` against the current schema, same method as every prior version of this
document.

**ROOT Foundations (01-04) subtotal: 146 activities, 1,482 minutes, 24.7 hours.** This is now
real, measured data — Phase 6D's own version of this document correctly flagged the eventual
"20-25 hour" range as a planning ESTIMATE pending real authorship; the actual total (24.7 hours)
landed inside that estimated range.
ROOT 01's activity/minute count grew by 3 activities / 15 minutes this phase (the new
`root-01-m00-welcome-to-root` orientation module). ROOT 06/07/10 each grew by 1 activity / 3-4
minutes (their new practice-bank intro lessons). See `docs/ROOT_V1_CURRICULUM_MANIFEST.md` for
why.
**ROOT Foundations (01-04) subtotal: 149 activities, 1,497 minutes, 25.0 hours.**
## Self-paced vs. instructor-led
As in Phase 6D's version of this document: the figures above are self-paced estimates (the sum
of each activity's own `estimated_duration_minutes`). Instructor-led classroom time is still not
a separate summable database field — every Instructor Notes section documents approximate live-
facilitation timing in prose (e.g. ROOT 02 Module 3's "25 minutes read; 15-20 minutes live with
discussion — longer than a typical lesson, deliberately"), but this remains per-activity
guidance embedded in Markdown, not a column a query can sum. A future phase could add a distinct
Unchanged from Phase 6D/6E: the figures above are self-paced estimates (the sum of each
activity's own `estimated_duration_minutes`). Instructor-led classroom time is still not a
separate summable database field — every Instructor Notes section documents approximate live-
facilitation timing in prose. A future phase could add a distinct
`estimated_duration_minutes_instructor_led` column if precise classroom scheduling becomes a
real, measured need.
As a conservative approximation, instructor-led delivery of the full 67.9-hour curriculum should
be expected to run somewhat longer once live discussion and demonstration time is added —
consult the relevant Instructor Notes before scheduling a live cohort session, don't treat the
self-paced total as a classroom-time promise.

time data accumulates from actual students, not before.
## Program completeness
## Program completeness — ROOT_ V1 vs. the full authored program
With ROOT 01-04 now authored, the ROOT_ program's structured curriculum (excluding ROOT 08,
deliberately deferred as non-capstone-gating, and ROOT 11 modules 2-7, deferred pending future
lab infrastructure — see `docs/ROOT_PILOT_CURRICULUM.md`) now runs a complete, measured
beginning-to-advanced path: Linux fundamentals → Linux administration/networking → Git →
containers → Kubernetes → security → troubleshooting → real operations → capstone. This is the
first phase where the FULL foundational-to-capstone path has real, authored content and a real
measured duration at every step, not a partial curriculum starting mid-stack.
ROOT_ V1 (`docs/ROOT_V1_CURRICULUM_MANIFEST.md`) is 64.2 of the program's 68.3 authored hours —
everything except ROOT 08, deliberately excluded as non-Capstone-gating and not yet authored to
V1 standard. ROOT 11's remaining six modules were never counted in either total (they don't
exist yet, unlike ROOT 08's PARTIAL-but-real content) — see `docs/ROOT_CURRICULUM_COVERAGE_
MATRIX.md` for the honest READY/PARTIAL/PLANNED breakdown across the entire program.
