like I said, maybe I misread it
I'd get clarification before exploding. But if you are right (and upon further thought I agree with you), yeah, I'd be pissed. On the other hand, it seems there is a time limit for the training period so at least there is a goal end site in mind. On the other other hand, I bet those that do poorly in training are fired. On the other other other hand, this is probably good for the clients. Most software consultants from the "big" companies are filler, to simply satisfy the body commitment from the contract, and I have very little faith in their abilities.
