Good overall but I didn't realize it would be USA-focused. The presenter was good to focus on what is relevant in Ontario. Some real-life examples or case scenarios would have been good (e.g. examples... See more

What a disaster of an organization!

1. Signed up for in person course in 2022. It was rescheduled, then moved to virtual so asked for refund. Got it.
2. Signed up for course in-person, scheduled for today. Oct 19, 2023. Went and no one was aware of course. Emailed, called, WhatsApped organizers...no response. Close to hr later, phone call. It was rescheduled...I received no email. No, not in junk either. Was then re-forwarded the email from rescheduled course comms from 2022. And they had the audacity to say "You said you have not received email from us, however I can see your reply for the date change"....THE WHOLE EMAIL CHAIN WAS FROM 2022!!! I was then asked to show them comms that there was in fact a course scheduled for today, by them....needless to say, I'm dumbfounded at this point. I forwarded them my receipt with the date of the course, today, and you can still find the course in Eventbrite online, so I forwarded a pic of that to them as well. I will never attempt to take any courses with them in the future and would not recommend them to anyone.

Predatory if not illegal marketing practices

I received unsolicited commercial email from a "James Taylor" at mgtrainingworld.com promoting classes at mangates.com. I never provided my email address to either of these organizations for any marketing purpose whatsoever (I give each different company their own virtual email address, so it's obvious when I am being spammed). If they are this free-wheeling with their marketing, you have to wonder what else they're doing that's unethical if not illegal.

Update: I've seen two credible reports on LinkedIn that this company is stealing other's intellectual property and selling it as their own.
