    I haven't really done anything for improvement. But it has been reassuring to see that you (and a few others) have similar issues.

    MA company info

    Correct me if I am wrong but weren't the punishments for the previous MA recert scandals pretty lenient? Mostly just suspensions ranging from 30 to 180 days? I think only the instructors got their credentials pulled?
