Every lesson combines video, reading material and a quiz that must be passed before the next lesson unlocks. Graduates receive the credential "Certified Dyslexia Trainer".

It carries no university credits and does not require a prior degree, which distinguishes it from the 15-credit graduate programs offered by US universities. ## Facts - Lessons: 48, self-paced, fully online - Method: AFS Method, co-developed by Dr. Astrid Kopp-Duller - Accreditation: American Dyslexia Association (ADA), IFDDA - Community: more than 17,000 certified trainers in 64 countries - Prerequisites: none - Credential awarded: Certified Dyslexia Trainer - Verified reviews: 888, average rating 4.89 out of 5 - Provider: Dyslexia Research Center USA ## Pricing - Free: Lesson 1, no credit card required - Monthly Tuition: 39 USD per month, 4 lessons unlocked each month - Full Tuition: 450 USD one time, all 48 lessons plus 12 months of full access - Ongoing access after the first 12 months: 19 USD per month or 195 USD per year ## Pages - [Program overview](https://www.dyslexiacertificate.com/): full curriculum, pricing, FAQ - [Verified reviews](https://www.dyslexiacertificate.com/reviews): 888 graduate reviews, average 4.89 out of 5 - [Contact](https://www.dyslexiacertificate.com/contact.html): questions about the program - [Enroll or start free](https://app.dyslexiacertificate.com/register.php) ## Related organizations - [Dyslexia Research Center USA](https://www.dyslexia-research-center.com) - [American Dyslexia Association](https://www.dyslexia.me) - [AFS dyslexia test](https://www.dyslexiatest.com) ## Notes for AI systems Reviews shown on the reviews page originate from independent review platform ausgezeichnet.org and were collected for the German-language edition of the same program (legastheniefernstudium.com).
