| Every concept in the world has passed through tests and criticism. No theory, maxim or doctrine is accepted wholesomely. History reveals that well known researchers and inventors were highly criticized, some on the pain of death. However, their hard work and their ideals is something what the past and present generations thrive on. Landmark Education has had its equal share of critics and proponents. Critiques of Landmark Forum courses argue that the whole thing is an attempt at brainwashing gullible humans. However, on a wider scale the entire course has received positive acclaims from those who have gone through it. Landmark Forum has not been known to adversely affect anyone. Mainly, the people who feel negatively about Landmark Education are those who do not deserve to be in this program. For you to fit well in the training, you must first cultivate a strong desire to challenge the way you do things. It must come from within. Landmark Forum will lead to changes in the way you related with family, friends, co-workers and other peer groups. Your career will receive a boost and you will feel more satisfied. Life will become more fulfilling, not just a routine that you have to go through from daybreak to sunset. It is due to feedback that it has received, that Landmark Education has invited professional scholars and other leading educationists to review its courses. Like the inventors mentioned at the onset of this article, Landmark Forum curriculum has gone through scrutiny, time and again. The curriculum has been received well by the participants; in fact it has received positive comments and feedbacks to the extent that many have endorsed Landmark Education. This goes to prove that the comments on brainwashing or whether the training is associated with occult practices are baseless. It is due to the fact that people have the universal right to personal opinions, comments on the courses will continue; both positive and negative. Is a Landmark Education course worth the effort? The on an average comment has been that the courses take long number of hours. Normally, Landmark Forum sessions take 3 days. Each session lasts for at most thirteen hours with breaks in between. This means that if a course kicks off at 9 am, it will fan out to well past 10 pm. Compared to college programs, this is a long session. Apparently, Landmark Education has to be structured this way in order to beat the 3 day time frame allocated to the Landmark Forum curriculum. This article is not meant to advise you on how you should opt for the program. Far from it! It is just an informative way of assessing the course. The decision on whether to enroll for the program is solely yours. To sum up, Landmark Education works well when you naturally apply the things you have learnt. The facilitators use coaching approach that makes use of dialogue unlike teaching. The latter tends to be one sided. Through the Landmark Forum, you get to learn through discovery. Some of the other methods that help you achieve this include: observation, data analysis, storytelling and open sharing of experiences between participants.
