A while back, I posted a message to let you know that ZD University planned to
offer a REXX class, based on our book _Teach Yourself REXX in 21 Days_.
ZD University still wants to offer the course. We still want to teach it.
However, a minimum of 300 students are necessary -- and only 200 have signed
up.
The course is given in an "online forum" format, where students and
instructors post messages. You don't have to worry about time zones, or about
your erratic work schedule. Just log in a couple of times a week and post your
questions (and homework!).
The class costs $5 a month -- yes, just five bucks. (Some people have written
to me that they signed up earlier but have been charged, even though they
weren't taking courses; if that's true for you, the ZD University people are
anxious to fix the situation. PLEASE don't write to me, but contact the
webmaster or whomever is listed at the ZDU site.)
The REXX class, and its syllabus, are currently listed on the ZD University
Web site on the "planned" page. Click on the "notify me" button and it should
ask for your email ID etc.
When we have 300 people signed up, we'll have a course. Not before. I'd like
your help to make this happen. (Feel free to distribute this message.)
