Hello, @Dolly La Salle...welcome to Bigger Pockets. 

I've heard of folks who received a lot of value from training / boot camps (full disclosure - I don't have any insights on the particular program you mentioned), but I know many more people who took advantage of free resources on Bigger Pockets and their local REIA groups to build their expertise and launch their REI career.

Perhaps it comes down to your position now and your goals. If you're trying to get into simple buy-and-hold single family home portfolio, that is a lower complexity path and can be learned through existing (free) resources. If you are focused on large, multi-family properties requiring syndication or other complexities, you would likely benefit from specialized training. 

Either way, I second the sentiment of @Account Closed...we have to take action on what we learn, whether on BP podcasts or in a $700 boot camp. So if it motivates you to act, I'm all for it!

Best of luck to you and look forward to following your success!

Welcome, @Kristian Bauer and Amy! Sounds like you're doing all the right things to launch your real estate investing career...well done on all fronts.
