Study.com helped me with two major tests. It was easy to use and it got me a social work license as well as my teaching certification. I am a huge advocate for the program. The pacing is great and the text and videos are helpful.

I am in education, and needed to take an exam to add another credential to my certification. Study.com had the best study guide available for the money and it is broken up into easy to learn modules. This certification is a doozy and the bite sized lessons are not so overwhelming, easy to process and retain.
