Have they sent you any info? And do they have any regional or national accreditation? (They'll smack it up on everything if they do.)

Well, whatever accreditation they say they have, you can contact the board and check up on, so if they aren't, it's kinda easy to find out.
It can't hurt to ask for some info. :)

Jessie,
From what I understand, PCDI is run by the same company as Ashworth College. I think with PCDI you just get certifications (I could be wrong), and with Ashworth College, you actually get college credits and a degree (they offer Associate's and Master's). And I know that Ashworth College is nationally accredited. That's where my boyfriend is taking distance learning courses from now, and he seems to like it. Their website is www.ashworthcollege.com (http://www.ashworthcollege.com). Oh, one more thing... Ashworth College is about $900/semester, and that includes all textbooks and materials and everything so it's a pretty good deal.
