Telecourses
Idaho Public Television broadcasts a wide range of telecourses you can
use to earn college credit. But even without college credit, these series
are a great resource for self-enrichment or to supplement high school
or college curricula. Many of the telecourses that Idaho Public Television
broadcasts are associated with college-credit courses offered by Boise
State University (1-800-824-7017, ext. 1709, or 208-426-1709
in the Treasure Valley). Registration should be completed before classes
begin.
For the Fall of 2008, IdahoPTV will broadcast the following telecourses
early Saturday and Sunday mornings (for specific episode listings, see
our overnight educational
