Can I enroll or buy now?+
No. Payments and enrollment are not open. Public pages do not include an enroll-now or checkout path. A voluntary interest list on the live site is not enrollment, a reserved seat, or a promise of a launch date.
Are these accredited or doctoral programs?+
No. These are independent, non-degree skills courses. A certificate is a certificate of completion only.

On public pages, DBA is the Digital Business (DBA series) prefix — academy branding, not a doctoral award. No college credit is offered.
Does a certificate guarantee a job or income?+
No. No income or employment outcome is promised. Hiring, earnings, search rankings, business results and licensing decisions depend on many factors outside a course.

Is Work-Ready free?+
It is designed to be free for warming-center and partner programs by partner code when a program is active. Public paid access is not open. Codes, partner arrangements and the certificate issuer still need setup; no registration is open, and no job or income outcome is promised.
Can I learn on my phone?+
The Work-Ready reading lessons are phone-friendly. Practice work and some workplaces may require a computer, headset, quiet workspace and wired internet. Technical courses need suitable software and a computer. Those requirements are not a job offer.
Is there a refund policy?+
Only a draft proposal exists. The planned 14-day approach requires owner and attorney review and must align with applicable law and the selected checkout provider.
Will AI teach or grade me?+
AI-assisted materials exist; no live AI tutor is connected. Imported knowledge checks are scored on the server. A human instructor must review demonstrated work before any completion record is issued. Final assessment and appeal policies still need approval.
