My ISP has an arrangement with dpec: for $8 a month in addition to basic
charges as well as a "setup" charge, accountholders can take all the classes they want.
(I'm still on my first class.)

I am one of the tech writer aspirants. I appreciate all the good advice I've seen lately
about getting into the field: I'd thought of posting a similar question. (I graduated during
the Carter Administration with a liberal arts degree (not English): I am a largely self taught
techie who likes to write and is a frustrated teacher.)
