  11. Anyone use Studyguide 101 for fcca?

    ctcpete replied to hopesgramcracker's topic in Excelsior College

    I know others like SG, I quit using it. I found errors in one of the early tests the entire answer key was out of sync and they would not send me a corrected version. Seems like a bunch of stuff they...

    Could someone confirm that EC is still accredited in NJ? Anyone have a list of states or the name of the accrediting agency so I can look up the states myself? I have the 3 LS exams and FCCA and CPNE...
