The most valuable course I've ever taken was a Small Business Management
course put on by Continuing Education at a local high school. Taught me
all kinds of useful things about marketing, administration, licensing, and
most importantly tax implications of owning and operating a small
business. I think it cost about $50 CDN more than 10 years ago.
The course that had the most impact on my career wasn't a single course but
a complete program. In May I completed a one year post-grad certificate
program in Interactive Multimedia. For eight intense, stressful months I
learned information architecture; graphic design and manipulation; digital
audio and video creation, editing, and delivery; animation; web and CD
authoring languages; and project management. I'd be hard-pressed to say
which individual course was the most valuable.
