    Does anyone have any experience with AGU?
    http://www.agu.edu/

    I understand they are DETC accredited.

    Does anyone know how the courses are structured?

    Back in the late 70s I knew people who had taken courses put on by AGU (but before they changed their name, granted degrees, or were accredited by DETC). These people were all contract administrators in charge of DOD contracts at small businesses (50 to 400 employees). At that time classes were held in conference rooms of various small businesses and were typivally 2 to 5 day courses.

    Tuition advertised as including most course material.

    I think AGU fills a niche requirement in providing an education in the management of government (especially DOD) contracts.

    But I have seen these type of courses put on by University of Phoenix where classes were held on a contractor facility (for example a courses in Cost/Schedule Control System Criteria or in Proposal Writing).
