Ane Rapid Education School

AKA Puke University.
The rapid education school can give you a year of collage in six weeks, provided that no lab work is required. The school is popular for language, engineering, and math. 
The down side is the once a week sessions leaves the average non telepath feeling sick and tired. Some people do throw up, hence the name. 
The average week at Puke U is an hour of training, napping the rest of the day. Spending the next day eating like a longshoreman. The balance of the week is digesting what was crammed into your head before the next session with the teacher. Rinse repeat for six solid weeks. Do it for 24 weeks and you have a four year compressed degree.
A single subject such as basic fluency in a language can be handled in a single hour. At the end of the week you have a man-on-the-street grasp of the given tongue. Two such sessions will make you good enough to do translation or diplomacy.
The status of the "compressed education" is confirmed over the 200 plus years the practice has been in use. Your condensed schooling is schooling. As long as no lab is required you are good. Obviously the four year colleges hate the idea. They speak of the well rounded graduate of their traditional university and the experiences that such people have added to the formal education.
Oddly the Ane do not argue this. Compressed education has its place. They do not feel it replaces traditional learning. Humans and other races learn that way for a reason. 
Many traditional universities and colleges throughout the Federation hire Ane teachers for compressed learning in the appropriate fields. Nothing that has hands on applications is truly suited to the compressed learning method. It can cram the book into your head, but that is all.
