The course duration listed in the education page doesn’t take into account WSSB BB reduction.
I had the BB active for three days yet the course I’m currently taking was listed as 22 days long(10 edu reduction) instead of 19

Think you are required to hold BB for 7 days before you can benefit from the effects, its the same for Bank BB as I thought I might be able to invest in bank for a month sell the BB and reinvest those funds in something else for a month then sell those shares and buy back the bank BB when I needed it but the 1 week wait screws that up.

Seems to be working fine.
01-05-2021 05:14:19Rosierosie started the Sports Medicine course which cost $2,250 and will take 20d 3h 50m
The original length of Sports Medicine course is 4 weeks (28 days = 672 hrs). You get a 20% discount from merits and 10% discount from the stock block. That reduces the course time to
672 hrs * 0.8 * 0.9
= 483.84 hrs
= 20 days 3 hrs 50 mins 24 secs

The time values displayed on the Education page before you start the course includes all the discounts that you are eligible for.

Thanks..!!

Well... unfortunately not now because now that I took that course the time is not displayed anymore! Can it be that maybe (as I've ad the WSSB benefit active for just three days, meaning I had the stock for 10 days...) the value of 22 days (4 weeks * 0,8 = 22,4) was cached somewhere? Not a big deal as the actual duration is correct but it's the discrepancy that made me jump at it...

The bonus was active when you started the course per your logs. The time durations are calculated considering all active bonuses when you visit the page. It is highly unlikely that pre-bonus value was shown. If it was cached on your end, it would be upto you to clear the cache (or simply click Ctrl+F5 on Windows or Cmd+F5 on Mac machines).

I will close this for now, you can keep an eye out when you start the next education course. If you see an issue, be sure to grab a screenshot and submit a new report.

Thanks..!!
