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.
