As I said, the decision to start charging money was controvercial. The
main reason for the money is for keeping a full-time registrar as they
are now issuing Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for the courses. That
was a few year ago, and it still is a good organization. I'm not trying
to slight them at all. There is a general attempt to move toward formal
accrediation to issue college credits, but that is a much harder leap to do.
