The Web-based certificate program will begin in May, 2003, with a course entitled "Introduction to Family Literacy." The Certificate consists of 15 credits (5 courses) that may be applied toward a bachelor's or master's degree. I would like to give all the details, but it is easier if you check out our web site <http://www.ed.psu.edu/goodlinginstitute/goal_2.asp>. While you are at the web site, you might be interested in downloading the report "Family Literacy: A Research Agenda to Build the Future." Please contact me with further questions.
