OT: Continuing Education Credits
(15 Messages)
Everywhere I look I stumble across places that offer classes and give "Continuing Education Credits". Now I'm thinking of presenting some seminars on applying control theory using embedded processors.

Is there some central clearing house for accrediting courses that offer such credit? What sort of hoops do I have to jump through ...
Amateur Poll: ARRL Certification and Continuing Education (C-CE)
(24 Messages)
We've all heard about the claimed "dumbing down" of the ARS. I think the ARRL took a bold step when they began putting together their continuing education training classes. Now I'm curious...

Jerky responders will be ignored. I'll start first. I haven't taken a single one, but I'm interested ...

("Big Somewhere Else" mostly.) That was odd, because I certainly have a web site for a New York location: (which borks to a sub-sub-level page.) Did they forget about the NY campus, did it r ...
continuing education of a home baker
(17 Messages)
For anybody baking at home, a large part of it is discovering what professional bakers already know. Today I had my next lesson: Proof your dough in the refrigerator! I was working with a relatively wet dough (for Pugliese). The first benefit was that my dough had better definition, instead of expanding mostly sideways. The second benefit was that the oven spring was much greater. My loaves rose up sharply in the first five minutes of baking. The third benefit was that I didn't worry about leavi ...
