Mikey,
 
It is university of Montana-master online beekeepers course. Tuition runs about 300 to 500 depending on level. I can't recall exactly right now. The level I just finished is apprentice and it is made of of basic info- diseases, biology, colony dynamics etc. Learned stuff I will never need like how to wrap a hive for winter but who knows maybe I'll lose my mind and move up north one day.
Thing I like is advice is based on scientifically proven concepts. Internet is a great place to learn things but it is always possible that the info you get is just wrong.

If you google it the site will come up and you can get on the mailing list for upcoming classes.

That said, hearing her say, "You're my hero!", means a lot more than an "Attaboy" from my employers.
 

   I stand firmly beside you there!  I worked two jobs from the time my wife was pregnant until the twins were ten. Then quit one job and opened my own gun shop. gunsmithing, bluing etc...  And.. worked until the fateful day my wonderful wife took me out on the back porch, handed me a rum and coke and said....   "I want you to quit working."

    Unfortunately she meant quit the paying job and become her slave.    WORKS FOR ME!

Here's an update.

I just completed the Journyman level at U of M with a solid A, 96%!

Already connected with a research buddy for the Master's level. Not sure what research project we will settle on but we have some good leads.

I agree with Baker, you will undoubtedly be plagued with questions now Neil. It can get lonely at the top, keep your head on. And you are not allowed to go to any other forums with your new degree! You have to stay right here! Understand young man? Right Here!
