A Firecircle platform subscription is your only cost.

The fully-funded TTE Program, valued at $5,000.00, is accessed via a monthly $19.99 CDN, tax included technology platform subscription for the duration of the program (usually 3 - 9 months), depending on a participant’s self-paced learning.

Through this platform, which covers the technology and administration of your program, you will get complete access to Firecircle’s online platform, the TTE program and the accompanying business and networking resources. The subscription flows monthly and you have the option to unsubscribe at any time should you decide the TTE is not for you.
