Why has everyone been canned????

It seems you’ve let go of nearly all your trainers, many of whom have been with ITProTV since its inception. An explanation would be appreciated, as ITProTV has always been a friendly and valuable learning platform. I’ve been a subscriber since nearly the beginning, and I must say, I’m deeply disappointed by the way you’ve treated your staff. ACI Learning doesn’t seem to have been beneficial for ITProTV. I noticed a decline in standards, particularly when I attended a couple of your webinars. Despite requesting additional information, your representative promised to follow up but never did.
With the abundance of IT training resources now available, dismissing all your online trainers will make it difficult for you to attract new customers. Personally, I will be cancelling my subscription, as I find this behaviour disgraceful.
A very disappointed subscriber

Welcome to the party @Stuart-Williams . I'll be here until the end of November when my member lapses. I signed up to a trial of Pluralsight today. They have a 10 day trial and you can ask for a membership discount via their chat application. It will save you 20% for the lifetime of your subscription.
It wouldn't surprise me if my account gets banned after saying the above. I hope people will see it and at least try somewhere else. ACI doesn't deserve the loyalty of its subscribers.

thanks @Andrew-Despres Pluralsight is a solid resource; I've been with them since the start of their journey too. However, they lack the fun, engaging style of ITProTV, and unless you're a corporate user, you don’t get access to their labs. An Udemy personal subscription is also worth considering—they’re more affordable. Best of luck with your future studies!

Wonder if they will update the community on what has happened over there and their plans

@Brian-Bauer doubt it. If they had a plan to communicate to the community it would've been done already. Ironically enough ACI Learning posted this on their LinkedIn page yesterday:
It says how important getting a degree is for working in IT. I guess that's their focus now? F people getting certs, only degrees?

Thinking about this further, the closing of ITPro makes a lot of sense. I have seen requests (and made requests myself) for various content or changes made here or on the platform and nothing has come of it. In hindsight, it makes sense why these changes never happened if the plan was to stop investing in the ITPro part and shut it down.
My next question would be, why did ACI buy ITPro in the first place? Why get brand new content made for Net+009 and the cybersecurity course that Sophie worked on?
