I have recently accepted an online assessment position with a group called Education Design which supplies an E-test for ESL learners to help them determine their placement level.

I don't know much about this company and am somewhat skeptical as to its legitimacy.

Does anyone know this group and are they legit?

Is this another thinly disguised ad, or another example of the feckless lack of common sense of the average EFL "teacher"? Why did you agree to work for them if you think they might be dodgy? Why ask for advice?.....this smells like promotion. Legit? The kind of people who use such ruses are usually illigitimates.

Soapdodger,

Yeah, thanks for the advice. I clearly don't know much about finding legitimate employers and I clearly would have signed a till-my-death contract without thinking better of it.

I truly appreciate your concern for my total lack of common sense. Thank you oh wise one.

I have made a tentative agreement with them that is not binding - I was simply wondering if anyone knew anything about this company - I was not asking for snide commentary.

Learn to give advice without being a complete tool.
