        Hello,

            My name is Peter Koel. I am an AS/400 Instructor at Alexandria
Technical College, in Alexandria Mn. We are starting up an Instructor led
AS/400 Internet  education program. Our AS/400 classes are taught entirely
through the Internet.
             I am looking for input on AS/400 topics/classes that you feel
would be good topics in a 2 year college program or for current working
professionals. The topics must be taught within 90hrs spread over 18 weeks.
The topics must also use the AS/400 green screen. What kinds of skills do
you want your employees to have?  We currently teach the following:
            1) An Introduction to AS/400 Operations - 3 credits
            2) An Introduction to CL Programming - 4 credits
            3) An introduction to DB2/400 Programming - 3 credits

            We think topics such as an Intro to RPG or COBOL programming
might work, but are not sure of the direction to take. The classes we
currently offer are for college credit. Do you think the classes would be
more popular  if we offered them at a flat rate rather than for
$140.00/credit? Is college credit important to working professionals? 
             Once again, thank you for any input or guidance you can give
us!

                    Sincerely,

                         Peter Koel
