Just curious. When I certified as a tech I paid $50 for the course.
Teaching it myself I charged $85 when it was in town and I had a free classroom location. If I have to travel all expenses are factored in, but I like to keep it under $200 definitely, preferably more like $150.
The above were both in Canada where there is very little public funding for this type of thing and techs are either doing it out of their own pocket, or through their work on a very piece-meal basis (a public health nurse here, a fire fighter there, someone at a community resource organization, for example).
I realize this likely varies greatly depending on regions, and coalitions, and public/private funding, but I'm curious.
And while we're at it, what would your cut-off have been if you were paying for it out of pocket?
