I ran across an organization called Grassroots Workshops that hosts math and diversity related workshops for teachers with options to purchase $80 graduate credit hours from Brandman University. Presumably, at some point this year, these will become UMass Global credits. The mini-courses seem to be the value point here.

Thanks for this. Can you say more about what you mean by "Presumably, at some point this year, these will become UMass Global credits."?

Right about now is when I'm thinking, "Hm, a UMASS-affiliated degree for $3,500 - $7,000?"
