Pricing & Enrollment FAQ
Do I get certified when I enroll?
Enrollment provides access to our academic curriculum and learning tools. Institutional recognition and directory visibility are distinct performance-based milestones earned by submitting business execution proof through the START Build System™ milestones.
What is included in free vs paid programs?
The Foundation Path (Free) is designed for orientation and founder program selection. Paid Professional Programs grant access to structured academic business courses, guided build milestones, systems templates, and official verification eligibility.
How does AI Core fit into my founder path?
AI Core acts as an autonomous systems layer that automates lead generation and operational tasks. It can be integrated into any learning path to remove technical execution overhead, allowing founders to focus strictly on strategy and growth.
Can I switch between programs later?
Yes. Aspiring Founders often begin with the Foundation Path and enroll in Professional Business Courses or AI Power Packs as their venture reaches specific operational milestones. Program upgrades are handled directly through the Enrollment Office.
What is your institutional refund policy?
START maintains a transparent refund policy. Eligibility for tuition adjustments is determined by enrollment timestamps and coursework engagement metrics. Detailed terms are accessible through the Enrollment Agreement found in the founder portal.
