Other notes:

-Teach live classes for these subjects. Charge for the classes. Allow testing out of any subject. Charge for testing. Cap testing time frames as needed. Code samples on FTP servers. Use adilas university. Create actual manuals for both online and printable PDF's. Use GoToMeeting for online classes. Post class schedules and agendas and itineraries. Use elements of time to hold all of this stuff – as much as possible.
