Table 1: Features and Benefit Comparisons Between the Gold and Platinum Membership Levels
Weekly 1-on-1 Coaching
Once a week, we meet to review your progress and address any questions or challenges you may have with your dissertation chapters, topic, data analysis, surveys, or anything else.
Dissertation Review Service
We review your dissertation and provide content, clarity, and organization feedback. Although we may fix glaring APA errors, this is not an APA editing service.
Access to the Dissertation Writing Center
Step-by-step videos show you how to write your dissertation paragraph by paragraph. You get access to one chapter or module per month.
Quicker Dissertation Completion (Typically)
Platinum members typically finish writing a chapter in about 15 days and complete their dissertation about four months sooner than Basic members.
