UBI vs Barnetts

Hey I was wondering if anyone had experience with these repair schools. My father has done the Barnetts courses but I was looking in to UBI which seems to be cheaper as well as offers frame building classes. Does anyone know any advantages/disadvantages of either school?

You might want to tell us your background and what you're hoping to accomplish by taking one of these courses. Are you a shop wrench? Someone who works on his own bikes? What?

Ahh yes of course. I work on my own bikes mainly. I've been getting into custom rebuilds latly and would like to gain a better foothold for these endevours. Also seeking certification to open more doors towards a career in the industry one place or another.
