While Study does limit the number of tests you can take in a month, there are no parameters for Straighterline.

This course only got 2 credits because they didn't tell us we needed to add a project to the class. We will be going back through another "Technical" review with ACE to get this course its full credit.

Ah okay. I saw on another forum on here someone posted that SL did limit. I guess that is what I get for listening to the internet :leaving: My mistake, thanks for pointing it out.

As of right now, neither SL nor Study.com limit the number of tests you can take per month. Neither charges extra for testing, and Study.com has no additional textbook purchases involved.

Any chance that you guys are working on an Employment Law course?

They have Business Law, would that not work? I'm not familiar with the business degrees. I could see why there could be a distinction between Business Law and Employment law though.

My son's HR Concentration requires both. Employment law is a bit tougher to find.
