Is there a passing grade? Go and just engage enough to sound you are submitting, but play the same game they do.

I believe it is indeterminate. They decide when you are reformed. He talked about doing this. He's going to engage them. The man has a lot of fight in him. If he can record the sessions he will be able to show us how to address these types.

lol - yep. You almost don’t need the actual training. Once you realize the ‘corporate answer’ they’re usually easy, outside of one or two questions where there’s either more than one answer required or there’s two answers that could be correct when only one is required...and you have to be exactly right.

The ones specific to California employers shocked me a bit.

Do what Ben Shapiro says he did to get through college, UCLA, I believe -— tell them what they want to hear to pass the courses and get the degree, not believing a thing he told them.

Just retire. I’m sure he’s old enough.

Ha! I read that sometime in the very early 1980s and the only takeaway I remember is that quality is the meeting ground between the subject and the object and that electrotherapy was still a thing back then.

Never would have guessed Canada is such an evil place.

Again? They tried to deprogram him a couple of years ago.

You see those empty seats? They represent the people that took the alternative training involving a cattle prod to the genitals. Those in the room are regretting not taking the alternative training.

“ Peterson will tear them to shreds once it is over.”

I bet it’s one of those lame, on-line, animated courses.

I worked for a community college in MD, and we had to take all kinds of on-line BS training sessions.

I have read it a few times on and off over the years, but last time about 20 years ago I think.

Interesting book...what is “quality”...:)

Jordan should move to the US.

His adult daughter has been trying to get him to move to Florida. She loves it. My wife is from his neck of the woods (Grande Prairie, Alberta). It is way out there, and Canada is much more oppressive than it was.

Peterson has said he intends to record the sessions and make them publicly available at some point. The action you suggest would appear to make him liable for more actions later, and in any case not the path Peterson expects to take.

His claim that he wasn’t going to comply seemed to be a claim to fight it in court rather than acquiescing.

My company seems to acknowledge it is all silliness, though some of the upper management hasn’t gotten that.

The training doesn’t ask “what is x”, it asks “according to this document, what is x”.

The test is defined as convincing the assigned trainers that he has learned his lesson. There is no standard, only wrong answers.

A bit disappointing that Jordon submitted. I thought he was adamant.

As I understand, his daughter already has.
