Shaped by SCCM’s commitment to meeting the needs of each individual customer, the FCCS: RL course pricing structure is designed to be both fair and flexible. Pricing options are tiered, based on a country's Gross Domestic Product at Purchasing Power Parity Per Capita as reported by the World Bank in its most current World Development Indicators database. This allows SCCM to accommodate ranges in needs and available financial resources.

Tier	GDP (PPP) Per Capita (USD)	Single Course Pricing (USD)	Per Learner Pricing (USD)
For-Profit	Not applicable	$1,320	$65 per learner
Nonprofit Tier 3	More than $15,000	$830	$62 per learner
