  • What payment methods are accepted for the online course? Do you store credit card information?

    Using third-party payment processors like PayPal and Comics can offer an additional layer of security, as sensitive payment information is not stored on IESA's servers. Instead, the payment processors handle the transaction and store the payment information securely. This can help protect against the risk of data breaches and fraud.

It's also good to know that private individuals can deduct study costs when filing their income tax returns. However, the specific rules and conditions for doing so may vary by country.
