Because it's an elevated version of the good ol' SCAM. Akin to the "Learn how to sell on eBay" or "How to buy and flip a house" pitches that you see often. How good of an education can you buy for $899?

Probably not a very good one - but what do I know I didn't take the course. Btw, I've heard from folks that flip houses that at least some of the workshops are legit.
