Course reviews? IREM, BOMA, and others

Ron Jensen
Posted

Hi group, with so many forums here I was unsure where to post this question.

What do people think of the Online courses offered at IREM or with BOMA?

I heard a story that with IREM some people can not access the classes with their computers, and then that IREM customer service does not respond, and will not refund anyone with issues accessing the course they purchase.  Anybody else hear of that happening? How necessary are these courses for getting a job?

Can self-learners just buy the books, and learn yourself, or is the online course necessary and teaching special topics unavailable elsewhere?

Are there any costs that can be avoided if they try overcharging people in the process of taking all the classes? Are there any pitfalls?

I ask because there are no reviews anywhere, and to pay thousands of dollars to blindly start classes, it seems like there should be a few reviews out there that are realistic, not just testimonials posted at their own websites.

Any help here please?
