Yes, this has been mentioned, however, one of my own original points was that 
some of us want to be able to take courses and get recognition for them by 
independent online study. The UAHC courses are very good, but one has to be 
able to get there, pay for the course, and pay for housing. Many institutions 
will not pay for this, and that is okay if you are working full time. But if 
you are a soloist and only work less than parttime or as a substitute, but 
still want continuing education, then it becomes more difficult. Yes, I do 
learning on my own, but it isn't the same thing.
