Paying for your program
Flexible Options to Fit Your Life
Installment Plans
We pride ourselves on our affordability. We also recognize not everyone may have $2,000 to spend all at once, so we offer flexible 9-month installment plans. We believe all of our teachers should be able to step into the classroom debt-free.
Reduced Enrollment
Everyone should have access to realize their teaching goals. We offer reduced enrollment to candidates who qualify. If you qualify for reduced enrollment, you will receive a discount on the cost of the American Board Standard Certification Program in the subject of your choosing. The discount will be taken directly off the cost of the program. You will also still be able to pay for the program using our installment payment option.
