Correspondence Study
BENEFITS TO YOU!
Center for Financial Training Western States (CFTWS) offers you a convenient variety of self-study options so you can take timely, banking-related education and training courses when it fits into your schedule!
FORMAT
Enroll in a correspondence study course, and the course textbook (this is in addition to the class tuition) and outline are mailed to you! An instructor will be assigned, and working at your own speed, you will complete practical assignments and submit them to the instructor for grading. Graded assignments and examination scores are combined to determine your final grade. You will receive 2 or 3 credit hours with a grade of ‘D’ or better. YOU HAVE UP TO 4 MONTHS FROM THE TIME YOU RECEIVE THE MATERIALS TO COMPLETE THE COURSE.
