Course Options: How it works and costs
We offer you to choose how in-depth you'd like to get with each course. At the most basic level you can work on your own without any educator feedback and simply turn in your required number of assignments. Or you could get feedback and insights on those assignments through video and/or text. On the most robust side of things (maybe for current professionals, volunteers, organizations working in this field?) you get access to live consulting/advisory sessions from seasoned professionals who do this kind of work for a living. It's up to you. Just sing up for the level of engagement that fits best with your own personal/professional situation. Recognition of completion from CBS "Venture for All" is provided for each option.
Option 1:
DIY: $150
This includes access to all course modules, tools and additional readings. This does not include feedback on assignments from educators.
Option 2:
Educator Feedback: $225

Option 3:
Comprehensive: $325
