How does IRPE keep its cost so low?
One tenet of IRPE is to keep the cost of the program as low as possible. This helps make it available to people in all economic situations. We are able to do this by relying on volunteers for teaching classes, managing the program and conducting almost all other functions of the IRPE. There are only two paid employees, one full-time and one part-time administrative assistant. In addition to their salaries, other expenses include room rentals, postage and fees paid to Brooklyn College.
