Dear dprk007,
CDI College is not a scam. I have checked whether the various CDI
institutions are properly registered with the competent authorities in
the respective Canadian provinces, and they indeed are.
- The CDI institutions in Alberta are licensed under the Private
Vocational Schools Act.
- The CDI institutions in British Columbia are registered with the
Private Career Training Institutions Agency of British Columbia
(PCTIA).
- The CDI institution in Manitoba is registered under The Private
Vocational Institutions Act and Manitoba Regulation 237/02.
- The CDI institution in Nova Scotia is registered with the Nova
Scotia Department of Education.
- The CDI institutions in Ontario are registered with the Ontario
Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities.
- The CDI institutions in Québec are registered with the Ministère de l'Éducation.
- The CDI institution in Saskatchewan is registered with Saskatchewan
Learning, the province's department of education.
While registration alone says, of course, nothing about how good an
institution of education is, it proves that the institution exists.
Therefore, there can be no reason to consider CDI College a scam.
Best regards,
Scriptor
