Thought this might be interesting to general security types:

Stanford Cryptography I - Online Class

The Grinch posted about a similar class back in 2011. This one is set to start up on the 6th. 5-7 hours per week estimated workload at 6 weeks. If you complete the quizes and problem sets (above 70%) you'll get a signed certificate of completion (perfect for CPE's I would assume).

There are programming skills presumed, but from what I've read the programming should be either minimal or optional.

Hope it helps.

Sounds interesting. It looks as though the website Stanford is linking to is currently down.

Also, to anyone interested in this type of thing, there is a program run by MIT, Stanford, Harvard, etc called EDX that offer free courses in Computer Science with a certificate of completion that could possibly be used on a resume.

You can also take the Stanford course for free on Coursera - that's where I dabbled in it. The video lectures are simple to understand and material is interesting. I would definitely recommend this course.

@paul78, it's the same one.

I started but could never finish the course. I think if I gave it the ol' college try I could, but it's been so long that I've forced my brain to work in statistical maths like discrete probability that I'm still on the fence about giving it another go-round.
