The NCBTMB requires 12,000 written words to equal one hour of instruction, which is counted as 50 minutes allowing for a ten-minute break each hour. Some people read faster than others, and complete tests faster than others, so they may complete the course in less time. For classes that are presented in video format, or online courses presented live, the actual time of the video or presentation is counted as the amount of CE time.
Less than 30 minutes of the course completed = Full Refund (if enrolled 30 days or less).
30 minutes or more completed = No Refund
