What do I do now that I have received

I do not know enough about computers
to do this online. How can I still take the courses?
If you are uncomfortable with downloading files from the Internet, simply
register for the traditional paper workbooks. Prices and shipping options are
available starting with our Registration Information page. If you have already
registered and paid for the electronic version and you decide within 30 days of
registering that you want paper workbooks instead, we can apply the charges from
the electronic version toward the tuition for the paper version. Just send an
email and tell us your name, the courses,
and shipping method.
I have an old flyer and the prices
are different. Why?
Over the years we have changed the content and offering of our courses.
Prices and subject availability stated on this website will apply regardless of
what we previously advertised.
What if I find out after I've taken
the courses or more than 30 days after my purchase that my State won't allow this
continuing education course toward my license renewal?
We're an ADA CERP recognized provider, so our CE credits
are accepted in almost every state. If you have any doubts,
contact your licensing board. Please keep in mind several
States have limitations on subject matter or the number of
home-study credits allowed for license renewal. You are responsible
to know of these limitations before you register for the course.
May I take the test online and
send you a check later?
In order to receive the credit on the date you submit your answers, your
tuition balance must be paid in full.
What if I decide not to take the
course?
If you are dissatisfied with the courses for any reason, please return
the workbook materials within 30 days of purchase in good condition with an explanation
and we will refund your full tuition. Shipping charges are nonrefundable. If you
decide not to take an electronic version, please notify us within 30 days by email
at Customer Service that you will not be completing the course and we can reverse
the charges on your credit card and void your registration.
I was supposed to renew my license
last month. Can I take the class now and you date it for last month? (or yesterday?)
We do not post-date certificates. Completion dates are taken from the test
answer sheet return envelope postmark, date faxed, or date of the email transmission
so it is up to each individual to return their test answers within the license
renewal period. It is your responsibility to follow up and make sure your test
was received and graded if you do not hear back from us within a few weeks. If
you need an extension, call your State Licensing Board and explain your situation.
They are the only ones with authority to extend your licensing renewal period.
