    Rep returned for reporting them! If only everyone would take such a step when they encounter braindumping. Props to you.

    Well, I knew that marking them as a "braindump" would get something out of them. I just received a request from Danny @ OpenITTraining requesting that we change their status. Here's the email he sent:

    Any ideas on how to confirm this? All CertGuard can do at this point is take their word for it.

    Tell them to p1ss off and take you to court. If they can't construct sentences properly then I wouldn't worry about them too much!

    Simple: Call your contacts at Transcender and confirm whether they've purchased a buttload of licenses recently. If so, clear them; if not, keep them on the list.

    I have been reading the posts on this forum and now I am sort of stuck on what to do. Basically I have some IT experience, an A-level in computing which is from 1998 and recently an ICQ Level 2 course.

    Now I was trying to find a classroom based course for the A+ and MCSE at a reasonable price and found one for £1400 but thats not including exam fees. So I started looking elsewhere and came across this site called microsoftUK.co.uk (openITtraining) and sent my details in to see what they had to offer.

    Now the above all sounds good, but I just wanted to know if anyone has actually completed a course with them. What was their experience with them.

    I may be able to get funding for the course for upto £1400 but I do not want to go with a company that I am unsure. Please can anyone give me advise.

    Thanks.:rolleyes:

    And the MCDBA exams have retired, so you'll have a hard time passing that one.

    Quick update - sorry I've not checked this thread for a few months or I'd have chipped in earlier.

    Open IT training did indeed supply me with Transcender training materials, but they supplied the TestKing braindumps as well. Glad to see that the scumbags are still blacklisted - don't believe the blag about cleaning up thier act. Frankly the fact that they use the URL microsoftuk.co.uk is enough to demonstrate that they're in the business of misleading people.

    Dan (the author of the email to CertGuard) was my so-called "tutor" by the way, and it was he who emailed the braindumps to me. If that wasn't bad enough he took several days to answer many of my emails and was often terse to the point of rudeness.

    I'm sad to say that I didn't follow the course up apart from the first MCP, after all of the bullsh1t with the braindump I just didn't want anything more to do with them (and of course now my course has expired). I learned a fair amount towards 70-290 though, and maybe I''ll pick it up again at some point. One thing's for sure though - next time I'll buy a book and sort the exams out myself.
