I even called the Positive Psychology Center at the University of Pennsylvania to double-check. There is, however, an online program affiliated with Penn. It's taught by prominent positive psychologist and Harvard professor Tal Ben-Shahar, and is a 12-week non-credit course called "Foundations of Positive Psychology." Unlike many online courses, this one features weekly broadcast-quality video lectures in addition to normal course materials, opportunities to share ideas and network with other course members and the instructor through tools such as a blog and a discussion forum, as well as live, interactive events with Dr. Ben-Shahar. The current course is running from September 14 - December 7, 2009, but I don't know anything about future plans. <strong>UPDATE: I've written a new blog post about the <a href="http://www.meaningandhappiness.com/positive-psychology-online-course/417/" rel="nofollow">next session of this online course (summer 2010)</a>.
