DO NOT assume that if you are here and you pay that you automatically get to pass.

With any course this class takes dedication and hard work.

You must read, study and pass all tests, quizzes and assignments.

This is an adult learning environment, if you need help you have to ask for it and make time for it. We are here to help you in any way that we can but we will not track you down to help you or to get assignments.

You will be dealing with people’s lives, so this is serious business!
