Preparation Station Product & Information Guide for TEFA Review
Curriculum pathways, offering status, grade-band fit, purchase-lane distinctions, and vendor contact information. This document is prepared for TEFA program review and marketplace alignment.
Approved TEFA vendor
Nationwide Acquisitions, LLC, operating as Preparation Station, is an approved TEFA Marketplace vendor. Each curriculum is identified as TEFA-approved only after that exact offering has been reviewed and appears in the marketplace.
What we provide
Digital-first curriculum pathways across five learning areas: Practical & Trade, Situation Handling & Self-Command, Design & Motion Studio, AI & Emerging Tech, and Homeschool Essentials, plus books and activity titles.
Purchase paths are separated
Family direct-retail, TEFA-funded, and school/district purchasing follow distinct routes. TEFA-funded purchases happen only through the official Odyssey Marketplace using individually approved offerings.
Approval applies to the vendor — not to every offering
Preparation Station is an approved TEFA Marketplace vendor. Individual offerings appear in the marketplace only after program review, and no curriculum is described as TEFA-approved until that exact offering has been reviewed and appears in the marketplace. Marketplace participation is not a government endorsement of any product. No sensitive records or payment details should be submitted through inquiry channels.
Direct retail
Direct checkout is disabled until pricing, fulfillment, and payment are fully configured and tested. Standard-retail discounts do not apply to TEFA-funded transactions.
TEFA marketplace
TEFA-funded purchases must happen through the official Odyssey Marketplace using an individually approved offering. Marketplace terms apply to those purchases.
Schools & districts
Institutional purchases follow a quote path: curriculum review, flexible licensing conversation, purchasing readiness, and responsible implementation.
Learning areas under development
These are the areas Preparation Station is developing. Detailed curriculum information — grade bands, durations, lesson counts, pathway pricing, and buyer paths — includes CASHFLOW Classic and Rich Dad Poor Dad as free resources (not offerings for sale). Detailed curriculum information — grade bands, lesson counts, and pathway pricing — will be published on this site prior to any TEFA review submission. Per-offering availability and fit are confirmed during each offering's separate Odyssey review before it can be purchased with TEFA funds.

Curriculum pathway pricing framework
Public pricing applies to digital curriculum pathways. Tier-to-offering mapping and availability require individual Odyssey offering review before purchase.

| Starter pathway | $299 | Entry-level curriculum pathway. |
| Focused pathway | $1,695 | Focused multi-lesson pathway. |

Current status by offering
Every planned offering below is informational. None is purchasable, none carries a funding-eligibility claim, and each must pass its separate Odyssey review. The ESA launch page publishes detailed curriculum information for these pathways — grade bands, durations, lesson counts, pricing, and buyer paths. Only fields that are not publicly confirmed remain labeled pending documentation: final marketplace offering IDs, supplier-authorized resale status, fulfillment specifics, and review outcomes.

Future catalog lanes under review
Only The Vulturian is a confirmed title. Supplier-review items remain unavailable until resale authorization, exact TEFA offering review, landed cost, margin, and fulfillment are documented. These lanes are candidate inventory, not current marketplace-ready material.
When an offering becomes "Available"
A candidate moves to "Available" only after legal sale, program eligibility, resale authorization, positive margin, exact SKU/description, delivery terms, and the applicable marketplace offering record are confirmed. No offering is described as TEFA-approved until it has been reviewed and appears in the marketplace.
Curriculum review
Institutional curriculum review is available on request before any purchasing decision.
Flexible licensing
Licensing conversations are open for schools and districts evaluating pathway fit.
Responsible implementation
Purchasing readiness and responsible implementation planning are part of the institutional quote path.
Questions reviewers may have
Is Preparation Station an approved TEFA vendor?
Yes. Nationwide Acquisitions, LLC (operating as Preparation Station) is an approved TEFA Marketplace vendor based on the operator-provided approval email.
Does vendor approval make every offering TEFA-eligible?
No. Each offering is reviewed separately in the Odyssey portal. A curriculum is described as TEFA-approved only after that exact offering has been reviewed and appears in the marketplace.
What does the published pricing include?
Pricing is published per curriculum pathway tier. Inclusions are documented with each offering during its Odyssey review; no inclusion claim is made before that.
How do district purchases differ from TEFA purchases?
TEFA purchases happen through the official Odyssey Marketplace with an individually approved offering. Schools and districts use a separate quote path with licensing conversation.
Why do some offerings still show "offering review"?
Because no offering is published until its exact marketplace record is confirmed. Titles, formats, and pricing are subject to change until then.
What are the support and service boundaries?
Complete requests are acknowledged within one business day. PDSES/ClassWallet status is currently unknown and is not advertised as approved until evidence is confirmed.
