And does anyone know these Canadian IT Traning
people? They
apparently just started setting up a site, but half of their links are
to Wikimedia projects... and they're obviously waiting for a
wikiversity site to be set up (check their one "Press Release").
http://www.canadianittraining.com/Main.htm
I'm trying to make sense of this.
I'm naturally suspicious of this. They have too many domain names
which appeared when I looked more closely at the contact information.
They also have
canadianitoverseas.com and
educationbeyondboundaries.com which link back to the same website.
The phone number for the CEO is listed as belonging to one W. Jolly of
Richmond Hill, Ont. The other phone number appears to be unlisted.
I also followed through the link to their Nova Scotia based Web design
provider. That gave me another site of theirs at
http://www.cittilearningsystems.com/ That, at least, has a more
substantial page about the courses that they offer, mostly IT and
business related but with none of the courses being described beyond
having a title. Evolution Learning of Halifax
http://www.evolutionlearning.com/# also seems to be theirs. The lack
of any personal names to all this is an alert to me.
I suspect something like Vancouver University International that was
dicscussed not long ago. They may be trying to piggyback on
Wikiversity to build credibility for themselves!!! :-D So far their
track record is too slim to be meaningful.
Further to the above I have pre-emptively registered the domain
wikiversity.ca
