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.
