The VESI courses have partner colleges that will give grad level credit for them. For the most part, they're education course credit but there are some partner schools that give counseling or the like credit for some of the courses.

At grad level it looks like there's 4-5 three or four-page papers and 3 two-page journal reviews for the course in addition to the exams at the end of each module.

It's also relatively inexpensive as well.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wile E. Coyote, genius. I am not selling anything nor am I working my way through college, so let's get down to basics: you are a rabbit and I am going to eat you for supper. Now don't try to get away, I am more muscular, more cunning, faster and larger than you are, and I am a genius, while you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten, so I'll give you the customary two minutes to say your prayers.

Bachelor of Science in PsychoRabbitology degree
Master of Education with a specialty in Rabbit-specific destructive munitions (or eLearning & Technology, I forget which)
Doctor of Philosophy in Wile E. Leadership with an area of specialty in Acme Mind Expansion - 2017 Hopefully

VESI is $240 for 3 credits. The courses are all on the subject of Education.

Another option is National University, where you take one course per month.

Lastly, PBS (you know, the tv network? yeah, them!) has a similar program to VESI, where you can take graduate level courses in Education and have them transcribed at various colleges for a small fee.
