PLEASE NOTE – BE WARNED

It has come to our attention that there is a course run by Knowledge Academy whose venue has not been booked, the presenter has not been confirmed, and potential attendees have not been able to make contact with the organisers.

In the light of this, we strongly suggest that before booking and paying for any conferences and seminars, you verify the credibility of these courses, by contacting the organisers, the presenters, and the course venues to confirm that the courses will actually be held. DO NOT make any payments until you have confirmed the legitimacy of the course.

We have stressed this previously as we have noted that there are many event organisers who are setting out to deliberately defraud potential delegates.
