    I'm one of the few who earned a TV/VCR Repair Tech. Career Diploma. I also have one in Electrician, Basic Electronics, and PC Repair (Under the former names: Harcourt Learning Direct & Thompson Education Direct). I was one of the pioneer students of the career diplomas. In fact, more recently, I earned a Business Securities Certificate from there.

    Though having these credentials didn't do much for me in the jobs I worked for a number of years upon getting them, last year, I was able to start a technician municipal position at an internation airport. Thanks to my technical education at Penn Foster, I did it! I wasn't very expensive nor too difficult. The courses were not too much, nor too little. They were just right.

    At a community college here, I would've spend well over $20,000 for this amount of education. The people there are very knowledgable, friendly, and polite. I have to give this correspondence school a two thumbs up!

    Penn Foster is nationally accredited by the DETC (Distance Education & Training Council), which is recognized by CHEA and the US Dept. of Ed.
