    It would be cool to use them for UL credit in a bachelors degree such as Homeland Security at TESC/COSC...be great to use with FEMA

    Is this available to civilians? If so, you might consider posting this to the main board. That's a pretty good number of free courses, and some very interesting titles.

    It is attractive, there is a whole 30 UL courses there....but if you look several require residencies and they appear to primarily be restricted to Military (I didn't look at all of them).

    It would be a great way to complete the HS/CJ concentration at any of the big 3.

    I have tried to register for the certification courses, but it requires to be Government employee (I am contractor). Also, those are taught in-classroom courses, not interactive on demand likes other courses.
