    Free Self Study Courses From MIT

    Here is a wonderful resource for free self learning offered by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Unfortunately, none of these courses will give you CE’s nor are any of them directly related to the eye care business. To go to MIT’s OpenCourseWare web site, go here:

    Highly recommended.

    Holy Mary mother of God... I will never leave my study. I have been randomly taking college classes for various purposes (mostly just to pass the time). This is going to kill me.
