Admissions: CHU is an online education program for Handiham members.  Please register with us prior to starting a course.  We do ask students to register for courses that are appropriate to their level of licensure.  For example, if you do not yet have an amateur radio license, of course you should take is Technician Class, not Extra Class.

Fees: CHU is a free service for Handiham members.  The cost of operating CHU is covered by your membership and by donations from generous hams everywhere who want to share the fun and excitement of amateur radio.  Courage Center is a nonprofit United Way member.
