Does anyone know about the other courses at The institutes? Something like AINS 24?

AINS 24-General Insurance for IT and Support Professionals

If I am reading it correctly it says $149 at Prometric testing centers for 3 upper level credits.

I don't know what would be required in terms of study materials or if there are things I am missing.

It should be noted that The Institutes offer a lot of courses and certifications that are ACE-evaluated as upper level and graduate level. It looks like a good number of their tests are offered at Prometric testing centers for well under $300.

I thought about buying that NA school for sale, but that was $1 million.

I actually had this certificate a million years ago! No credit unfortunately...they apparently didn't give ACE accreditation when dinosaurs roamed the earth...

I have the AINS24, it was a really difficult exam and there's no way I'd have passed it if I hadn't paid for the online course for $200. To add insult to injury TESU then translated it as INS200, Introduction to Insurance, not even upper level!

I know that COSC have an agreement with The Institutes about how their courses translate, but the only table I could find for the translations is out of date and AINS24 isn't on it.
