The Learning Spark
This course is going to be a wonderful asset for me… it really got the learning spark in my brain blazing away again... Now I'm just trying to decide what path to take.
Thank you to everyone who worked hard to get these programs advanced funded. These are wonderful opportunities to grow.

One more story…
I am a strong advocate of lifelong learning… I
graduated from high school more than
three decades ago and I can count on
one hand the number of years I have not
been in some course or program.
