While I think it is silly, since she has only been out since April, and it doesn’t say what she has done to seek employment, but it does bring up a good point.

A lot of people were getting directed into the Cisco Accadamy as “You can make a lot of money”, and after a few semesters people would drop like flies. Cisco one of eight, started out with four classes with 24 students. At the end of the run at Cisco eight, there were only eight of us left.

If a college or place that provides cert training, what is their obligation to provide you with employment?

What if you never learned the topic well, or just don’t interview well?

Are they also held accountable for a down market?

It will be interesting to see what the courts say.
