Of course you know that the securities field is not a get rich quick scheme. This is a sales field, and it is just like starting your own business. You will find yourself meeting with people during the day and many times in the evening, catching up on paperwork at odd hours in between. It takes hard work and dedication to reach the exceptional levels of income that are possible, but the rewards are unlimited. You will find that your success will depend more on your self-confidence, attitude, commitment and perseverance than your education or experience!

Are you in a hurry or would you prefer a more leisurely pace?

The Pro-Studies Advantage Home Study Program allows you to complete the course on a fast track because YOU are in control of the pace. That can't be said for programs that are dependent on a class schedule or school hours. Perhaps you are not quite ready to launch a securities career, but would like to get started so you are ready when the time is right.

Not to worry, you have 12 months to complete your studies so you are not under any pressure.

A word of caution...
Do not purchase any program for your securities license unless it meets the following five criteria:

1. First of all, you need to be aware that some courses are offering “one size fits all” program. You may not be able to obtain the License until you have completed other, additional courses. Our courses are divided into packages required either by your firm, your state or your interest. Many of our students are interested sometimes in completing only one course in order to become better investors. Others find that the broad number of packages offered by "Pro-Studies Advantage" allows them to tailor their studies to the many subjects required of their specialty.

2. Purchase only courses that are being offered by a certified school. Pro-Studies/Superior Schools Incorporated has been in the professional vocational training business since 1978. We are one of the oldest and largest vocational schools in Oregon and offer courses throughout the entire United States .

3. We strongly recommend that the courses you purchase offer a variety of programs, including packages. An online study program is satisfactory for certain students. On the other hand, to maximize your chances of passing the securities exams the first time, text based correspondence study with exam prep software greatly enhances your pass rate. Very few securities schools offer this type of course, one that reduces the student’s time and expense to obtain a license. Pro-Studies Advantage courses offers both types of programs, allowing the student to choose their preferred method of study.

4. Make sure your courses include all the help and support you need.

When you have found time to study and have a computer problem you need help NOW! You cannot sacrifice that valuable study time possibly on a Saturday night and wait for someone to come into their office at 9:00 am on a Monday Morning.

Any technical questions you might have with the online course procedures for the "Pro-Studies Advantage" program will be answered 24/7 either by simply dialing an 800 number or sending an email.

If you need our help with any course content (coaching), you may contact us by email at support@pro-studies.com, FAX (541-388-2944) or by phone (1-888-903-1021) during our office hours.


5. Make certain that professional coaching and support are readily available throughout your studies and preparation for the license exam.

Some questions for you to think about:

• Will you be able to get help when you need it? What kind of help is available? 
• How do you go about getting help? 
• Do you have to go somewhere specific to get help and will that be convenient for you? 
• Will it be necessary to make an appointment? 
• How long will help and support be available; is it only during classes? 

Hopefully, there are no extra costs for this level of support from the schools you are considering. If, however, there are additional costs, such as a separate fee for a special "exam prep seminar", determine what those costs will be and factor them into your budget when evaluating which program to invest in.
