From SHARCNETHelp
Jump to navigationJump to searchNEW: SHARCNET has started developing self-paced online courses, which can be taken any time at your own pace. Once the course conditions (which depend on the course) are satisfied, a course completion certificate is issued. To take any of these courses one has to have an Alliance account. The courses which are already available are listed below, and we plan to develop many more.
