Request for Question Clarification by gopalkamat-ga on 29 Jun 2002 13:03 PDT

There's plenty of organizations/training institutes in Vancouver
teaching several different computer courses.  That makes it impossible
to answer this generic question.  Are you interested in any particular
'class' of courses ?  That would help us answer your query without
spending too much time on your question for $10.

Thanks,
gopalkamat-ga

Vancouver, Washington (US) or Vancouver, British Columbia (Canada)? It
does make a difference.

I am trying to build the following chart for Vancouver BC Canada:

Example:

School Name   | Course Offered | Class Time | Total Hours | Price 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
CompuCollege  | Basic HTML     | 4 hours    | 16 Hours    | $300.00
cdn
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
EduCenter     | Basic HTML     | 2 hours    | 40 Hours    | $760.00
cdn
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Metro Training| Flash 5        | 4 hours    | 40 Hours    | $960.00
cdn
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
etc...

I understand that many courses have different offerings, so if you can
clasify the courses into the following categories, it will be easier:


1)  Basic HTML ( no Javascript)
2)  Advanced HTML (JavaScript or Databases)
3)  DreamWeaver
4)  Macromedia Flash
5)  Advanced Flash (action script)
6)  Graphics
7)  Basic Computer Introduction
8)  Basic Microsoft
9)  Excel
10) Word
11) PowerPoint
12) Access
13)  Databases

Thanks.

You are asking for a lot of detail from many sources, so please help
clarify a little further.

Are you looking for courses that require an admission to a program, or
non-institutional courses only? For example, you can take courses
through corporate education companies, community colleges, night
schools, et cetera that don't require admission, but courses through
BCIT, Emily Carr, UBC, et cetera may.

Also, because course calendars, prices and course descriptions change
regularly, and courses can be cancelled and added in without notice,
what sort of accuracy are you looking for?

Are you using this for personal use? If so, what term/deadlines should
be considered?

Do you want only schools (et cetera) who cover _all_ the courses, or
just all the ones that cover at least one of your selection?

As a side note: if you're planning on a more global use, I'd suggest
instead you contact the various colleges/schools/companies directly to
get them to supply you the information as it changes. You could always
submit a question to gather the colleges/schools/companies you would
need to contact.

This question needed to be answered by this weekend, and since I gave
such short notice (because I just found out about google answers) I
just completed the research myself.  So thanks anyhow, but my chart is
complete (what a LOT of work!)
