Looking for something similar to the FEMA programs that indirectly give college cred

[rickyjo]

Thanks to this forum I have been accumulating credit from the FEMA independant study courses. This has been extremely convenient and affordable; however, I'm afraid I'm not studying emergency management so all it's good for is elective credit.

I'm looking for anything that subscribes to that kind of system, ie. Get raw credit that certain colleges accept and subsiquently convert to actual regional college credit and then transfer later.

I'm woefully under-employed right now so I want find ways of getting credit cheap so I don't just stop making progress while I'm in between school. It doesn't have to be free like FEMA's program, it just has to be cheap. Shooting for $100/credit but want to hear anything. The cumminity colleges in conservative colorado springs are expensive!

I have searched google extensively but it is coming up almost exclusively with pages relating to dual credits, or college in high school programs.

Thanks!
