Questions about each
365 Financial Analyst
How much does 365 Financial Analyst cost?+
The subscription lists an entry price of $12.50, a monthly subscription of $36, and an annual subscription of $150. The entry figure is where the plan starts, while the monthly and annual figures are the ongoing rates, so the two should be read separately. Course access sits behind the subscription rather than behind a per course fee.
Is there a free tier or a free trial?+
A free tier is offered, so the catalogue can be sampled before paying. The platform type is a subscription, subscription, which means the paid side is a recurring fee rather than a per course purchase. The free tier is the entry route; the alternative is to start paying and rely on the 30 days money back window if the material does not suit.
