              This school lewd me in by way of constant emails and phone calls in order to use **** ***** which was around $9000 to pay for training. Microtrain said all the right things to get me signed up. Their training was bunch of separate independent courses or classes which they make seem like it is part of the same training " program" so that they can maximize the **** *****. I wanted to pursue training in " scrum master, business analysis" I went from this, to a list of 5 or 4 courses because it all sounded great from " *****" explained. DAY 1 " green belt" I found out that the course REQUIRED dual monitors in order to do the training and that I had to have windows equipped with excel etc... I spend half of the class with IT on the phone trying to figure out how to do this course. It all failed because they offered me this virtual desktop which barely loaded. It was a super frustrating experience because not only did I not grasp what was in the course, I was also along with other students placed in these " workout shops" which is basically just students together on a zoom call not knowing what to do with anything for HOURS. The school then suggested "oh we can give you a laptop to work with" but the class was already over with. 2nd class Bus Analysis this one had a book about 400pages which needed to be reviewed prior to the class, I never it until i sent an email 3 days prior to the start date. AGAIN was placed in these " break out sessions" after the instructor would go over material that I had no clue about because I had to read the book". My complaint was not received well, people were offended and started dropping me out of classes because I simply asked to cancel the 2 weeks long course I had since I felt like this school was a scam. after long discussions they agreed to put me into another class which THEY canceled without proper Notification and did not refund the cost paid to them. MICROTRAIN RUINED MY ***** they took $9000 and I got nothing.
