I would this study. My only drawback is the long lecture, I live in the country and only have satellite for internet. Is there anyway they can be recorded and an audio ordered?
Thanks for all your informative articles!
SHeila, you are welcome. To take this course you MUST have good internet connection since it is done via web conferencing. For now I think you should continue to study via this group that does not require it as much. Where are you located by the way?
