Author: This has been a long time in the planning. I hope all of you will spread the word by linking to this post and informing people via email.
This October will mark the kickoff of the Institute for Paranormal, Preternatural, and Parapsychological Studies (IPPPS). It is an online institute. There are roughly 60 six-week courses. Besides myself, Dr. Judd Burton is the other faculty member. I may be recruiting other faculty as we proceed.
The goal of the institute is to conduct formal online courses on various topics that fall under the IPPPS acronym. Students will be reading the best academic material on the subject matter and engage in other weekly learning activities with fellow students and the faculty (and likely other guest lecturers).
Here are the divisions and “departments” in IPPPS:
Division of UFO Studies
Ufology and U.S. History
UFOs, Science, and Technology
The Alien Abduction Phenomenon
God, Man, and ET
Division of Preternatural Studies
Vampirism
Lycanthropology
Giant Folklore
Demonology
The Occult
Withcraft
Paraethnology
Religion and Mythology
Division of Parapsychology
Parapsychology
Remote Viewing
Of the 60 courses, some have been selected for the 2010-2011 calendar year (first six week module begins October 4). Students can register at a deep discount until September 19. I’ll be doing some UFO history courses and a couple classes going through the works of Zecharia Sitchin and Barry Downing.
For those who are interested in biblical and ancient studies, I’m launching an institute for that as well. See the Naked Bible blog for info. Those who read this might find the courses on the book of Enoch of interest in that other institute.
Please visit the site; all the details are there. Hope some of you register!

Hi there, i am very interested in enrolling in your Ufology Course. I am based in Australia. I hope this isn’t going to be a problem? Thanking you kindly. Gary.
not sure how you saw that, but I removed the site a year ago due to lack of interest. There is no institute for this any longer.
I’m interested in this course can u give me more info thanx
These are no longer offered (the post dates back to 2010). Sorry.
Hi, I see on your previous post that you are no longer offering these courses. I am sorry to hear that. I was curious if you could send me the titles of books and such that you had planned to use for these courses. I would really love to do some research and study on all these subjects. I have done many online searches and have come out empty handed every time. Any help that you could give me would be great! Thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide!
just give me the course name; no one ever signed up (after months) so I took the hint!
I would actually love it on four different courses, if possible: UFOs, Science, and Tech; God, Man, and ET; Vampirism; Demonology. Thanks for the response and any help you can give!
Hi,
It is too bad you no longer are providing the course. There is no one else as far I I know who is running courses in this field. I have been doing my own personal studies, how ever, it would be nice to have a mentor on the subject. If there is anything you can do, or any materials I can use to further my study that would be wonderful.
Thank you.
if you have any specific research questions (bibliography) you can email me.
HI …… I am from Australia and have a hightened interest in ufology . Could you please advice me of the finer details of the course structure and fees . Thankyou , Sincerly Lorraine
These courses are no longer offered; there wasn’t sufficient interest.
Hello,
I am so heartbroken that you are no longer offering ufology courses. Do you have any advice on what people should read, websites they should visit and any classes they should take to become a ufologist? Thank you!
I don’t know of any programs for this, unfortunately.
