That means that their testimonial may not be entirely honest, as the only way to graduate these programs is to show total positivity towards the program. They do not have any teens testimonials' who have left the program it seems and this is suspect. In effect they are forcing their students to advertise for them, for free. WWASPS connection: Sunset Bay Academy was affiliated with WWASPS by way of sub-contracting WWASPS services in order to use WWASPS seminar model, marketing infrastructure, and billing services as noted in this press release:Nunya.com - "WWASPS having trouble in Mexico again" - 2009.
