"Paid good money to take the TIA CTB class and exam. During taking the three tests involved in the exam, test One and test Three glitched showing that I had made 0% progress after I had completed them. Once I completed test two, I received a page that said "Congratulations you have completed test two" and then the test was no longer available in my portal. I did not get the same message for tests one and three. In fact, when I went back to the portal, test one and three showed 0% progress while test two was complete and no longer available. As a software engineer and HTML/CSS programmer, I know they would not have a "Completed" page for one test in a sires of three. When I brought this up to them, they refused to confirm they actually received responses for all questions on test one and three. So, basically, I'm out over $3K with nothing to show for it, because their systems were poorly built. I would not recommend this program to anyone. Honestly, if you can sell, no brokerage cares if you are a certified broker anyway."

"High fees for an organization that never returns phone calls to answer simple questions about the industry. All online webinars that I have experienced are just commercials for other members."

"We are the member with TIA since 2016 and still are. I must say they have given us a very valuable start with freight brokerage, additionally members have access to the resource section which allows you to get many other useful information like latest contracts, educational materials etc. Me personally I love their webinars and educational courses, lots of insiders information which you will not find so easy."

"I truly feel sorry for anyone who decides to work here. Poor reviews of this place seem to disappear every other month on Glassdoor. Remember the saying "where dreams go to die"? This describes this place to a T unless you're an intern or graduated fresh out of college. People who have years of experience at associations or otherwise don't last more than 1-2 years here. Interviewees will be lied to about bad reviews. Ask them about their turnover of almost 20 people in 2 years in an office of less than 20 people. This place has gone downhill and is getting worse. No amount of poor attempts to fix this place will work. They have the wrong people in charge. Having a teacup on a saucer is more important than hiring competent people. The term "culture" is repeated like it is something valuable to the company when it is not. If you get in good with the management here, you can make huge mistakes and be untouchable. If you're not or try to challenge the things that are bringing down this association, you may as well leave. Something important to know if you choose not to listen to this review: most people don't receive their two weeks here. The nastiness and pettiness of this place is unbelievable. They run competent employees out and, when they choose to leave, won't honor the two week notice."
