#Current GoIt education program does not include React Native<ref>https://agreement.goit.global/ua/ ([http://web.archive.org/web/20250305234211/https://agreement.goit.global/ua/ Archived])</ref>. GoIt Fullstack course covers three "blocks": Frontent Core, Frontend Advanced and React+Node (each one is finished with a "team project"). As of 2025 GoIt LMS includes videos on React Native as an "optional content" but those were not available (and, consequently, could not be mandatory for "employment warranty") back in 2021-2022. | #Current GoIt education program does not include React Native<ref>{{Cite web |title=Course user agreement |url=https://agreement.goit.global/ua/ |url-status=live |website=[[GoIt]]}}([http://web.archive.org/web/20250305234211/https://agreement.goit.global/ua/ Archived])</ref>.

#"Examination" is added as a new requirement. However, no criteria for evaluating this examination are given. It is also unclear who the examinators are; it is implied that these are provided by GoIt. This raises issues about their impartiality since their evaluation of the graduate is directly tied to the application of the "employment warranty" - in other words, it directly influences if GoIt is obligated to return the money paid for the course. No form of appeal is provided. Thus, the examination bears resemblance to [[Forced arbitration]]. | #"Examination" is added as a new requirement.
