Search Engline for Courses

As I was searching for a course I came across this helpful site, learn4good,  which listed a large number of various online schools offering the course I was interested in. It gave better results than searching on google and was simple and easy to use.

PS for those who are not too computer savvy: The results that are displayed does not link directly to the school's website. It takes you to a form that you can fill to recieve an information package.

When you see a school that you think will have what you need. Search for their website via google and find what you need to know from the school's website directly.

Good site for reviewing colleges

I've been looking into some different options for studying with an online university and found this site.

http://www.onlinedegreereviews.org

Alot of honest and some stinging reviews about the online colleges that I had found to be recommended in other places. It shows that it's important to do thorough research before beginning anything.

I'm looking into California Coast University  and Ashworth College.  Both of these are waaay cheaper than most colleges. At the same time any university that is online only may have national  accrediation that is recognized by the US department of education,  but since they do not have regional accreditation you may have some difficulty transfering to other brick and mortar universities. Both these universities are recognized by the US Department of Education.

More Free Courses


These links point to websites that offer free courses that are meant to cater to For-profits and Nonprofits, however many of these websites offer a variety of classes, not only management-specific courses.

For-Profit and Nonprofit Programs


Nonprofit-Specific Programs

Although the above-listed sites are labeled as "for-profit," many of the guidelines apply to nonprofits as well -- there is more in common between nonprofits and for-profits than is uncommon.

Free Online Lesson Plans, Lecture Notes, etc.

A recent trend is for educators to freely share their educational and training materials. In addition to using the materials to design and implement your own learnings about particular topics, you also can learn about systematically designing trainings in general, including about the training's outcomes, goals, learning objectives, training methods, result and methods of evaluation.

Khan Academy

Khan Academy is a non-profit with the mission of providing a world class education to everyone, everywhere.

They have 2000+ instructional videos on the topics: Science, Math, Humanities & Other, Test Prep, Talks & Interviews. Definitely worth checking out if you're in need of brushing up on any level of your math, or interested in any subjects like the below which I pulled from their site (these are just a few examples):
Cosmology and Astronomy, Currency, Finance, Banking and Money, Crisis
