How about a class on negotiation essentials? Meteorology? Speed-reading?

WorldCampus.psu.edu features Penn State’s introductory-level course in meteorology, METEO 101. The 12-lesson class can teach you how to distinguish “menacing clouds from sunny-day ones,” and how to read satellite images so that you can create your own forecasts.

NotreDameOnline.com offers a Negotiation Essentials course—useful even just for wrangling “remote-control rights.” You’ll learn “playing-it-cool questioning” and the “lawyer-like lingo” it takes to seal any deal.

Berkeley.edu can help you interpret “the strange sights and symbols” of your night journeys, thanks to its Psychology of Dreams course.

MerrillReam.com is the home of a speed-reading course created by Dr. Merrill Ream. “Learn to scan and, most important, comprehend faster than you ever have.”
