I bet all those guys who wasted money on flights to Afghanistan are kicking themselves right about now.

This is great that you can do this on-line instead of having to be there in person. For us working people to be able to pick up this credential in off hours will make it that much easier.
Thanks for letting us know.

The real question in my mind: how much higher are salaries for terrorists WITH their professional certification when compared to those without?
Elliot
Brad,
I have been told if you have your certification, you can experience explosive career growth.

Hmmm. Reminds me of one of my favorites:
“Find Big Bang Related Items at eBay”
And, of course, when I open my spam folder in gmail, I always get recipies for things like “spam french fry caserolle” in the side-bar.
Brad
“big bang related” and “terrorism related” could actually be two ads for the same thing

If we take their accreditation away for plagiarizing other terrorists’ bomb designs, will they stop attacking us?

I assume this is some anti-terrorism training certificate. Ever since 9/11/2001 there has been a boom in the security consulting business. There are at least two magazines dedicated to anti-terrorism oriented police work and an entire industry has developed including courses, equipment, consulting, and police work specialties.

yep… it’s an official anti terrorism certificate. And just think that someone with an online internet certificate may be protecting you soon.

How do they do the labs? Do you have to provide your own materials?

AMU = American Military University ~ The Ultimate Advantage is an Educated Mind

Well, it shouldn’t take much, if this a so-called tech saavy society, to figure out which distance schools are “fully accredited” Nationally and Regionally, such as AMU; and which aren’t. All the major traditional universities are going the way of distance learning, including the Ivy League. It is a simple matter of finding out which are fully accredited and which aren’t. It would be wise to keep in mind that there are few institutions that were organized to provide military, undergraduate and graduate education, to not only the military, but also the NSA, and the CIA, AND happen to be fully accredited like AMU.

My wager is that it’s not an anti-terrorism certificate, that there’s no certificate related to terrorism at all. Instead, I think the relevant institution prints “[blank] certificate” where [blank] is a keyword determined by search/article content. In this case, the search/article probably involved the word terrorism, thus generating this advertisement.
Reminds me of when I googled myself, only to see a sidebar advertisement: “[my name] available on Ebay!”
I can easily imagine that there are any number of certificates and other authorities needed to demonstrate acceptability for jobs with folks like Blackwater and the TSA. I suspect however, that getting such degrees and certificates from AMU and Kasalan Univ-Online, are just not of the same pedigree as receiving the training at the National Defense University (http://www.ndu.edu/) or Park University (which operates campuses and degree/cert programs on US military bases throughout the US).
