I am going to start CBI, with questions

BlessedBottomz · 03-23-2007, 03:49 AM

I really wanted to do the DONA training for CD in my local city because of the well recognized name and it was nearly half the price of doing it online, but it fell the same weekend that I moved. So, I am too impatient to wait for the next training and want to get started now. I have emailed Nikki (from what you gals say, her and her program are fantastic) but was wondering if anyone could help me. I am interested in the payment plans, but plan on getting certified quickly. I am home and very driven. Can you get certified before you are done making payments? And, if I chose to make payments, would I be allowed to pay more or all of the balance at any given time? Thanks!

I'm not sure about getting certified before you're done payments, but YES, you can pay off the balance at any time. hth!

I think most organizations with payment plans will work to help you.

Nikki got back to me super fast. You do have to be fully vested for certifications, and you can pay more at any time. Thanks ladies.

Hey there.. for CBI you can have access to all of your information and assigments online, but you do not get a cert until your are fully paid for. There is an option for a 3 or 6 month plan, and the training is pertty long.. depending on what you are doing you might even finish paying for it at the same time you finish the corase work. you also dont get the hard cpies of the coarse work (the books) until payment is in full, but the same stuff is posted online.
