CPNE Workshop Reviews

Published

if you do a google search for cpne, you will likely see a new website that claims to compare the different workshops. the website says "this is the official cpne workshop review site, written by students for students to help you know the real deal".

since i have a technical background working in information technology, i wanted to share some information that those with a less technical background may not notice. this "cpne workshop review" website is hosted from the same web server as the workshop that it rates as #1. you can go to a command prompt and ping both websites to see this yourself. they both come back with the same ip address.

How self-serving!

Comparing the WHOIS data from NetSol is interesting, to say the least ...

I am the owner of one of the businesses reviewed on this dubious website. My wife and I vigorously dispute the cons listed by the reviewer. Our students have all been pleased and while a very few have failed, none has ever complained that our training was inadequate. True, our website is not as slick as some of the bigger outfits, but my wife and I are full time working RNs and we find that our time is better spent taking care of our patients and keeping up with the changes to the CPNE rather than gassing up our site. We are proud that people have come from all over the country to attend our little workshop. Our utmost desire is to help LPNs pass this difficult test. We have helped as many students for free with advice on and tips on our yahoo group and over the phone as we have our paying students. In our nearly two years, we have yet to show a net profit from our business. We fund the education of our students out of our own pockets and have always considered stressfreecpne as something of an altruistic venture. Our goal is not to get rich, but rather to do our own little part to help alleviate the shortage of RNs.

stressfree, thanks for helping EC students.

Is it just me, or is that sham site down now? I can't seem to reach it.

It seems to be down. You can look at it from the "cache" if you do a google search.

It wasn't up long enough to make it to archive.org. But interestingly enough, the second link I posted up there to the WHOIS -- the info has changed today to show a name, instead of the WhoIs Guard that was listed yesterday; yesterday those two listings were nearly identical. Cat's outta the bag, I believe.

I honestly believe if you use Rob's DVDs you will succeed just like I did.
