Ah – gotcha. It's interesting: We do get asked about the qualifications of the mentors by students before they start the class. But degrees and accreditation rarely matter.

What we've learned is that people want to be taught by those with experience – just like you want to be mentored by a co-worker with a lot of experience.

Virtually all of our students have full-time jobs, so perhaps this insight applies more to our market than others.

Also note that most education for adults advertises the _real world_ experience and prominence of their professors, rather than from where they received a degree.
