Why this score?
High Risk is a Degreeli Value Score v1 directional read based on modeled cost ($121,128), estimated debt ($75,099), early-career salary ($41,351), payback, completion, and review signals. The strongest signal is that enough directional data exists to compare this option against alternatives. The main caution is that debt risk rises quickly if borrowing approaches the modeled estimate. Data confidence is medium, so this should support comparison rather than act as a guarantee.
The Degreeli Value Score is directional, not a guarantee of salary, employment, or personal financial outcome.

Bottom Line
Worth comparing
Teacher Education and Professional Development, Specific Levels and Methods looks viable, but not automatic. It still produces positive ROI after completion adjustment, which means the upside survives a more realistic enrollment path.
The main thing to watch is slippage between ideal and risk-adjusted outcomes. Degreeli estimates that completion risk trims about $428,441 off the on-time case here.

Career AI Exposure
Lower Exposure (30/100)
This path appears more insulated because in-person execution and human judgment stay central.
AI Exposure is a second lens beside ROI. It should inform comparison, not replace judgment.
