Reasons why The CE Shop stood out:
The CE Shop offers a 5 day free trial. Any part of the course that you complete during that time period will be saved and you will get credit for it when you purchase a full package.
Another reason is that they offer a 30 day full money back guarantee as long as less than 50% of the course has been completed. The CE Shop is very innovative with the free trial and guarantee program. We are impressed with this. This is something that classroom based courses are usually unable to provide. Having an ability to try the class out before you fully buy gives the student the peace of mind to jump right in and get started on the course.
If you are not able to complete the course in the time period allowed, you will be able to purchase an extension for a minimal fee from The CE Shop.
