How does CourseCareers compare to the competition?

Updated October 25, 2026

Here's how CourseCareers compares with other ways to train for a new career.

1. Cost Each course is a one-time payment of $499, or a payment plan of four $150 payments every two weeks ($600 in total). There are no contracts, and you can get a refund or switch courses within 14 days of purchase as long as you haven't taken the final exam (one refund per course).

2. Time Our courses are self-paced and teach only what you need for an entry-level job, so you can finish faster than many programs.

3. Job search After you pass the final exam, the Career Launchpad shows you how to build your resume and LinkedIn profile, reach hiring managers and prepare for interviews. We can't promise you a job or a salary, but we teach you how to run a strong job search.

Note: We no longer offer our UI/UX Design course. The entry-level job market for UI/UX design is too hard to break into right now, so we stopped selling the course. If you like design and working in software, take a look at Architectural Drafting. If technology is what draws you in, look at Information Technology or Data Analytics. The entry-level job market for these careers is better right now.

Our current courses are Information Technology, Accounting, Technology Sales, Data Analytics, Construction Project Management, Electrician, HVAC, Plumbing, Supply Chain Coordinator, Property Management, Architectural Drafting, Construction Estimating, Supply Chain Procurement, Medical Device Sales and Human Resources. Each one has a free introduction course, so you can see whether the career fits you before you buy. See all our courses.
