WHAT MAKES SINGLETON WEALTH ACADEMY UNIQUE

Singleton Wealth Academy stands above the crowd of schools by providing the following:

• Courses focused on building hands-on skills that can be applied immediately – all courses are outcome-based, meaning that learners completing a course will have developed the skills required to complete the select tasks in a real-world environment. We accomplish this by ensuring that all courses include instructor-led step-by-step tutorials, which learners actively complete as they move through a course. Thus, by the end of the course, learners have actually completed steps towards achieving a goal.

• Highly skilled instructors – all instructors are required to possess a minimum of 5 years of industry experience in a leadership role, an advanced college degree from an accredited university with a concentration in the select discipline they are teaching, and, where applicable, a professional credential which distinguishes them as an expert in their field; for example, an instructor teaching an accounting course would be licensed by the state as a Certified Public Accountant.

• Quality curriculum and course materials – all course curriculum is reviewed to ensure the curriculum meets Singleton Wealth Academy's quality standards by adhering to best teaching practices, ensuring student learning outcomes are maximized. It also ensures that students with different learning styles or levels of educational background can complete the courses successfully. Our curriculum review process is led by our founder Sylvia M. Singleton.

• Access to Instructors - online learners have access to instructors via live office hours hosted during the week and via email so they can have questions answered promptly.

• Variety of Courses - learners have access to a one-stop-shop educational platform that caters to the needs of entrepreneurs, established small businesses, and anyone wanting to build generational wealth.
