Has anyone heard of or used the Thomas Institute? They have some courses that I 'am interested in but I have not been able to find anything out about them. Thanks for any help you can give me!

You could try searching the Better Business Bureau site at

Sorry - I have no idea what the Thomas Institute is!

Looks like a private company owned by an individual selling correspondence courses.

There is a "contact us" page on his site. I would ask for references.

Yes I did a web search and all I could find was their web site. No comments from anyone that has used them or had any dealings with them. Thanks though!

Looks like an on-line training company. Be careful and check them out first.

No, I couldn't find any either, which would raise a big CAUTION flag to me.

They list a number of well-known companies on their website so then I have to ask: if they have really worked with them, why no references/testimonials or similar?? Much more due diligence required. I'd ask them to provide refs from happy past customers - and why none on their website?
