:)Check out some of the podcasts on Wholesalers, do some research on the different contracts you'll need, and it wouldn't hurt to get in touch with an experienced RE attorney (covering your butt for one session with an atty is worth the money).

It got denied last session.

I was almost taken by the Fortune Builders course, but I did learn a few things from the free 1 hr sell session they had so I feel that was time well spent. 

I've learned more practical knowledge here on BP than I had in the previous 5 years of "free" webinars (which are really just sales pitches disguised as training sessions) and guru email blasts.

I have attended a training session from fasttrackremodeling.com.

I follow my practice with a stream of consciousness journaling session where I just write down everything going through my head without judgment.

@Zane ZeiglerMy first volunteer session is Dec 1st and I'm excited to learn.

(Private Lending)I tape training sessions for my review and my students' review.  

You as a student benefit from learning for those mistakes and getting hours of training packed up neatly into hour long weekly sessions with your mentor.

Keep in mind that I am NOT guru friendly and have had my share of "cheap $997" courses and 2-day "all-inclusive" workshops that contained much less informational value than what could be found in a 2 hour search session here at BiggerPockets...
