Answer

They vary all over the place!

Check to make sure they are accredited in your State / Province if you want to use them for high school or university credit. E.g. I have taken courses in Power Engineering through the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology: www.sait.ab.ca/ This school is highly regarding in the Power Engineering community and are equivalent to some community college programmes.

Other correspondence courses are more aimed at working professionals and will give Continuing Education Units suitable for submitting to your licensing body. e.g. I have also taken a course in Corrosion through ASM ( www.asminternational.org ) which is aimed at people who are already working and need a bit of information in one particular subject.
