University World-Class Education for Free?

Recently, I found out about a marvelous project that MIT sponsors called the MIT Open Courseware Project. I had to tell you about it because it includes hundreds of their classes with all the materials for the course and open for anyone to use.

Can you imagine being able to get a great MIT education for free, completely free? Well, now you can. While it does not come with an actual diploma or certificate, you can take the courses online in whatever quantity you want and for however long you wish. You're not even required to register.

Each course is set up with the syllabus, calendar, readings and assignments, so there's no guesswork. A few clicks and you are on your way to a great class given by world-class instructors of one of the most famous universities in the world, MIT.

So if you want additional support in your profession, take a course. If you need to know more about writing, find a class to pique your interest. If you want to be a lifetime learner, this is the place. Or, if you are just feeling bored and need an injection to create more energy in your life, enroll in MIT Open Courseware Project.

Go to http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Global/all-courses.htm for a listing of the courses you can take right now. Their main website address is: http://ocw.mit.edu/index.html.

Enjoy learning from some of the best and connect to other international universities who are committed to this project by sharing their course material for your learning advantage. You can check out those universities here: http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Global/AboutOCW/otherocws.htm.

Get going now to expand your vision and your future.
