So Jan says,
But Pat, what the IBLCE requires for those very courses that Dana is
talking about is continuing education, not university courses. They can be
taken anywhere, and any of the course providers COULD develop the courses and
offer them online or in class if they had the time, inclination and knowhow.
IBLCE doesn't dictate how long those need to be -- one hour? Two?
Doesn't matter. The only college/university/credit programs are the ones that
are higher education -- Biology (still shaking my head over that one), A&P
(as two different courses -- why?), psych, soc, etc etc.
Dana, thank you for your post. I'm going to explore those, and then can
offer that to our CLS students that take our course.
