Hi Don et al.

You might also want to take a look at online offerings from Champlain
College in Vermont.

The question that I might have is -- are you looking for training or
education? In some ways, training will get you up to speed in some facets of
computer forensics faster than education might, but I think that education
will provide better long-term value. I think that what you really need is a
combination of both over time....

Cheers!
