    Hi Peter. Why don't you go to the website: http://www.alison.com. It has numerous courses that you can take for free, which includes Computer Science. I can relate to you about high tuition. You can go to that website and go to search and put in Computer Science. It will come up with quite a few courses that are mainly video-based and you can get a certificate for it for just a few dollars. I took Corporate and Personal Tax course - the course is free and the certificate only cost less than $20.00. My encouragement to you is GO FOR IT!!! You can thank me later.

Certifications and experience. Computer science is one of the fields that is most easily studied without a traditional classroom, and is also one where you can get a job with knowledge rather than a degree. But you will have to know your stuff--your employer will be one of two kinds of people: Someone who knows more than you who you can't BS about anything, or someone who knows almost nothing and holds you responsible for everything related to computers.
