I would like to confirm what you have seen in this blog and thank Kevin and Sandy for bringing it to my attention. In the next couple of weeks we will be announcing the formation of the Business Process Transformation Group which will be available at www.BPTG.org. A new course schedule will be posted and anyone who has paid for training at BPMG will be offered the course that they have paid for at no charge. Please keep in mind that I was as surprised as everyone else with the demise of BPMG as I was contracted to train for them and was not a shareholder of the organization. Although we did not receive any of those funds that were paid to BPMG we find that the situation is deplorable and feel that this is the honourable thing to do. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact me at Jim.Baird@BPM3inc.com. Hi folks.

I also know that Jim Baird, who was starting up the Toronto BPMG chapter and does BPMG training, is offering to honour some of those commitments as well. You can reach Jim through www.bpm3inc.com Aretina, I sent you a private email yesterday with Kevin Brennan’s information; he promised to send your information along to some people involved with the training to see if they could help you out.

We have been offered online training through the Bennu Group but this is not what we paid for. It has been a very frustrating situation.

I do know some of the BPMG subcontractors are trying their best to help people in that situation get what they paid for. Aretina, if you send me an email I'll try to pass it along. I can't promise anything obviously as I am not now nor was I ever part of BPMG, but I do know some of their former people who are trying to help out people in your situation.
