Gordon -
I've ordered some of the same courses thru the years as well: CREI (actually made an oscilloscope and learned to use it!), Hume, etc.
Two years ago I ordered a "how to think creatively" course on the 'net from an Australian company (similar to the deBono stuff that had interactive lessons that were reviewed with feedback, progressed thru several levels, and cost around $15 -20 bucks per level. The content was interesting and worthwhile - each lesson was about 2 - 3 pages.
I completed a couple levels, but the company disappeared in about 6 - 8 months - no doubt because it was totally internet and email based and somewhat esoteric. Also, you had to DO something to move forward, and some of the lessons actually were quite challenging.
Regretfully, I lost all the lessons in a hard drive meltdown, so I can't provide you the name or URL.
Regards, Bob
