The calculus I video course is outstanding. I recommend it for anyone whose college education did not include Calculus. It is accessible for a student who has had trigonometry, but the trig stuff can be skipped.
Yale has online courses as does Cal Berkeley. I highly recommend the Berkeley Astronomy Course with Alex Filippenko if it is still available. Probably not YEC friendly...

Alex's video course is no longer on line at Cal Berkeley. I did find a link to the audio, but the quality of the recording does not do the material justice. It does get better after lecture one.
