KnowledgeHut are spammers, scammers and an overall dishonest company.
My previous employer naively sent two people to one of their project management courses. Both came back convinced that the main value they got out of the course was *how **not** to run a course*. Poorly organised, poor course content and extremely expensive considering how little they got out of it. They later did their certification through AIMP and were much more positive about the experience.
I haven't attended myself but have had enough personal experience with their spamming practices. Normally I just submit their emails to MailControl and the sender's details to spam blacklists, but my current review was prompted by my Twitter feed getting spammed with a fake 5/5 review posted on this very website. That alone should tell you something about how objectionable KnowledgeHut are.
Don't just take my word for it. Google "**knowledgehut scam**" and look how many ENTIRE WEB SITES are dedicated to how bad they are and how their project management courses are amongst the **worst** in the industry. Or try "**knowledgehut spam**" and try to count the number of people who are constantly spammed about their PMP courses despite never having provided them any personal details or doing business with them in the past. "*Unsubscribe*"? Hah, good luck. You'll just get even more spam for responding and confirming yours is a real address being read by a real person.
If you're not already convinced by Google alone, try looking up **#knowledgehut** on Twitter. Similar story it's almost 50/50 split between unhappy customers who were ripped off by KnowedgeHut and equally unhappy non-customers who can't stop the spam train. I say use the hashtag instead of **@knowledgehut** because their official account is private. Seriously, would you trust a company whose reputation is (deservedly) so bad that they need to 'protect' their tweets from the public?
