    I am actually enrolled in the PCDI course and find it pretty good. I`m not doing it to become licensed however, I enrolled because it was a course I wanted to take. Just a heads up, if you pay in a lump sum they take 125 or 150 off the total price. I think I only paid about $650.

    That being said this course is actually offered through the American Ashworth College and if you enroll through Ashworth not PCDI the price is cheaper for the same course. I was pretty ticked after I paid for everything and found out I could have gotten it cheaper if I enrolled through a different website. If you enroll through the Canadain site however you recieve a tax slip for the cost of tuition that is able to be used as a tax deduction.

    Here is the link to the Ashworth page. http://www.ashworthcollege.edu/progr...career-skills/ It literally is the exact same course. Once you register you don't even use the PCDI webpage, you log in for you assignments on the Ashworth page.

    I don't think the certificate/diploma that I will recieve at the end will help me in any regulated/licensed setting but it was for my own personal development that I took the course. Plus parents really like to hear that I am enrolled. It seems to prove to them that I am more serious about this as a business and I'm not just "babysitting" some kids while I stay at home with my own son.
