The radically innovative est Training courses operated as Erhard Seminars Training from late 1971 to February 1981; Werner Erhard and Associates operated from
February 1981 until early 1991; the primary course was renamed the Landmark Forum in early 1985; founder Werner Erhard sold the assets of WE&A in 1991 to
a group of employees, who then formed Landmark Education; Erhard retired and left the United States. Landmark rebranded itself as Landmark Worldwide in 2013 and
continued its success during the COVID-19 epidemic by developing courses delivered online via Zoom technology, then rebranded itself again in 2022.

Criticism of The Enterprise
Criticism of Landmark Education and Landmark Worldwide may have some basis in Reality. But Landmark is NOT any form of cult. I have been transforming events in my life
for over 40 years now, using the Landmark Education technology. I live in a remote desert city in the center of New Mexico USA and have little contact with fellow humans, and
virtually no contact with other Landmark Graduates or the organization, and there is your proof: Landmark Education technology works, no cult required.
— G.E. Nordell, Senior Landmark Graduate {first course October 1978}
  | "Is This A Cult?: Confronting The Line Between Transformation and Exploitation" [2024] by Anne L. Peterson, Foreword by {cult 'expert'} Rick Alan Ross After almost twenty years on staff at Landmark Education, the author decided that she could no longer ignore perceived faults within the organization. This is her report on events before and after her break with Landmark. Readers claim that the text is 'rambling' and 'disorganized'. • official booksite Kindle Edition from Difference Press [3/2024] for $9.99 Difference Press 8x5 pb [3/2024] for $14.95 author's wellness website is based in Plano, Texas author's event management website is based in Plano, Texas |
