After purchasing several courses through this site, and expecting to gain the skills and qualifications advertisied, it has come to my attention that this site uses FALSE ADVERTISING to hook you in - and I'm not even sure they have permission to host the courses, as I have contacted a course creator for an official diploma, and they claim no affiliation.

Travis - the go-to guy - once made an effort to remedy a situation for me; however, the next time I was unhappy with a misleading course, he decided he'd much rather assume to know my character, suggesting that "self-help" courses would benefit me in the end. 
- I don't study courses for "self-help", I study courses to gain skills and qualifications.

My character is not up for discussion; but you can tell they like to exploit the innocent, and sell them things they don't need. 

WHY ADVERTISE AND SELL A DIPLOMA - without the Diploma?!

The "certificates" you earn at the end are very generic and unprofessional - you can't even save them to your computer, download, or print them. Cropping a screenshot is your best bet. 

Why would I have so much exerience with a s**t company? 

One of the first courses I did, allowed me communication and contact with the course creator; they gave me professional and proper certificates and diplomas from their company. I assumed this was how it worked through OfCourse: you study a course; you then contact the creator for your certificates of completion and qualifications.  

Turns out: NO 

- through OfCourse, you just have access to some fairly thin videos, maybe some accompanying disorganised PDF's, and an auto-certificate dominated by the OfCourse logo. Which, as a collection of skills, looks unprofessional.
And if you contact the course creator for an Official Diploma - as advertised - they may not even know what you're talking about!

In this latest case, it is Libby Seery, over at "Rennaisance Life-Therapies" who at first told me I could BUY a Diploma in her course I just paid for and completed, for additional costs. But then she proceeded to deny any affiliation with OfCourse at all, and took no accountability for courses advertised in her name.

I will be glad to expose anyone exhibiting this behaviour, and warn others: it's in the best interests of our evolution that education is honourable, accessible, and the best that it can be - without exploiting each other for personal gain.
