Looks like oldstudent is the fraud here

Look up oldstudent's other posts. He posts glowing reports on NTTAP; a highly suspicious east coast "training and placement" company that appears to be paying apprentice wages to students with their own money. $15,000? You've GOT to be kidding!

I get the impression oldstudent might actually be an owner of NTTAP with his "testimonial" and accusations of slander.

I doubt, very much, if he was a student at LANWAN, Inc. Seems like LANWAN still has its "A" rating with the Better Business Bureau. This tells me that oldstudent was not a student there with a complaint, hence no change in their BBB score which would drop from even 1 valid complaint.

Oldstudent, can you give us your name so we can find out if you really were a student. So we can question LANWAN about you or look up your complaint to the BBB?

I'm thinking not......phony.
NTTAP owner

PS. Does NTTAP have a website? I can't find it anywhere.

Nice Website

I just found their website.

www.nttap.com

I do have to say that NTTAP has a nice website. I think I'll take another look at them.

I wonder when oldstudent will take lanwaninc down from their "A" rating with the Better Business Bureau.

Not much activity in this forum

I've posted a some real questions on this forum and there doesn't seem to be any real responses except bashing training sites and meaningless half sentence phrases promoting various study aids by camol and cobol. I'm still hoping for more help.

Also, there's no rating system here to help evaluate who to believe or not. Since there is no real way to judge any of the posters like Tomanac, cpuguy, or oldstudent from the forum (they could all be real or fake), I guess a reputable third party is probably the best way.

I did notice that the Better Business Bureau is mentioned a few times. And lan wan inc still has an A rating.

They have no complaints listed. They don't even have any resolved complaints. Which I think means that there are no complaints at all. I would think they would have complaints based on how posters here are describing them.

Not that my opinion matters much since I've learned mostly at work and with study aids and not from training places, I'd say the negative posters are probably bogus based on a reputable third party like the BBB rating them an A.

Chris.
"Still waiting for responses to my 292, 296, and MCSE Security questions and just posting for fun until then"

Former HTI student and this is my real name

I attended HTI last spring. It was a week of fairly good technical training by some pretty intelligent folks. Worked my butt off during class, and learned a lot. The lab was excellent.
The deal was pay $1500 up front, go to class, get a job, pay a percentage of your salary to pay for school. They pay for testing, lodging during class, and offer placement. The training was supposed to continue for 18 months with two more weeks of training etc.
What we got was one class, and lodging. They balked on the testing fees, stopped offering placement assistance after about a month. Fired everyone I knew, and shut the doors. I think they opened up again as LAN/WAN inc. In the same office space!
Well...all they got from me was the $1500, which was probably a fair deal. I got a job after they closed but no more cash for them!
I tried to recoup the $1500 through VISA on the grounds that they stopped offering what I payed for, but Visa wouldn't refund anything.
Looking back I'd be a bit more leery.
On the good side I'm a sys admin for EDS on a big DOD contract.
