Diane,
I got my Masters of Distance Education through Athabasca University – spent a lot of money (over $13,000) to learn what you want to learn. Stay tuned, my courses will be a lot cheaper.

Diane,
You’ve given some good blog topics which I will address in future posts. I understand how jumping into the private sector from academia can be somewhat daunting, but hang in there and we’ll get through it together.

I need to know what kind of software should be used (Content management systems, blogs, web site, etc), costs, free vs fee, how long should it be, how to market, how to literally set it up, should it be real time or asychronous, what topics are good, how many “students” in the class, how to enroll people…just about all the practical dos and don’ts. I have taught online classes at the undergraduate and graduate level for college credit. I have never taught something like this for no credit or for a possible fee. I know how to teach and structure a class online, but what I need to know is how to do it for my niche.

I need to know how to develop online learning experiences. I teach courses online for a public university. I want to know how I can teach courses for instructors who teach online and for students who want to find a good online program or want to know how to succeed online.
