To everyone who is trying to better themself. Remember this is just a website!!! You can get the same data FREE if your willing to look for it.
Smartcertify is a SALES company, a DBA listed as Forefront; they don't care about anything but your $$. They seem to be using a Scientoligy based pitch incorparating psychology acting like they care, to make you tell them your problems. Then they exploite your misfortune to take any means you may still have Credit, cash, check.
Read the fine print. What they sell is a membership to a website, prices seem to range from $900-$2307 for 2 years of membership. I called several times to gather this data, spoke with several salesmen & women, always got the same format of a pitch, always ended up in the same price range, (although they start out very high). I even stopped by to find a Boiler-Room call center with banners exclaiming CONTROLL=INCOME posted across the wall.
Do you get my point? They promote MANPOWER as job placement. Come on, anyone can call Manpower, they are a temp agency, a labor pool. Go ahead give them a call, but don't be surprised when they say they have NO jobs. They offer job postings on there websight, GUESS-WHAT, its Dice.com. I even saw the Tech-TV comercial, & guess what I saw the stars in person walking around the company parkinglot!!! I guess they really did get a better job!!!(lol)
My point is this. I'm a retired investigator with nothing to do. I hope you heed this warning. Good luck in your career. Make better choices

I'm glad you took the time to figure these crooks out. I had to call the Attourney General/complain to multiple people int Smart Crookify's pyramid sceme/and file a report here, just to get my money back!!! They are the biggest scam out there!! Manpower has their educational site for free!!! Manpower sold my name to them!!! Manpower let me take the class for free!!! Manpower pays at the most $7 and hour. They are just another slave labor temp company. Spread the word about them... One more thing Mike: I had a similar problem with a school called Boces. They want to sue me for complaining about them on this site. What advice can you give me?? I am giving the editor the OK to give Mike my email, so that he may contact me - if he wishes to give me any advice.. Thank you:
