Locksmith Course Question

Postby Temple » 19 Jul 2006 20:46

Has anybody looked at the Penn Foster Locksmith course? Has anybody taken this course?

I know a bunch of people here have taken the Foley Belsaw course and I'm sure it is a good course it's just not an option for me at this time.

I called FB today to see about taking the course and using my Army collage fund, the nice lady at FB said I couldn't do that because they were not an accredited school and couldn't accept my application however I could pay for the course with a credit card. Ummmmm no thank you.
