Hmm...this is one I hadn't come across previously. The "professional doctorate" (Ed.D.?) program is potentially tempting for US$2750. https://www.asiancollegeofteachers.com/P...cation.php
The doctorates are the same price as the masters, and you can get into the doctorate program with a B.A. and "10 years of life experience" (presumably meaning you finished your undergrad 10 years ago), so there doesn't appear to be much benefit in getting the master or over the doctorate. Aside from it being less work, in theory.
If I'm reading that site correctly you don't receive the doctorate from Asian College of Teachers, rather it is issued by European International University-Paris. That school sounds...questionable based on this thread https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...University
They offer a demo course so you can get an idea of the quality of classes prior to enrolling. I haven't done it yet, but would definitely do it prior to enrolling. https://www.asiancollegeofteachers.com/demo-course.php

Speculatively speaking, this could be a buy low opportunity like ENEB prior to the recent price hikes and value reduction. Assuming the doctorate doesn't have some weird name that needs to be explained away (as in the degree they offer is actually called Professional Doctorate), and Validential is still giving RA-equivalence for it, the upside makes the $2750 play something to research in more depth.
