The registration fee for the Online AP Summer Institute is $695. This includes College Board endorsed instruction materials. Acceptable forms of payment include VISA, MasterCard, check or money order, school credit card, and school purchase order. If your school will be paying for your certification, we are happy to work with you to make the process as easy as possible. We are accustomed to working with schools that have a wide variety of standards and procedures and we are willing to supply whatever paperwork you need. We will also work with teachers and hold your space in the class while the payment details are worked out. Registration fees are not refundable once a participant has registered. Schools may also substitute a new participant if the original participant chooses to cancel. Teachers will receive 3 CEUs upon successful completion of the institute. A certificate for these credits will be provided to teachers who successfully complete the institute.
