Will never attempt to take a class here again. I wanted to take the veterinarian assistant classes from here, but never got to. I had signed up for and paid in full for the saturday classes for june/july, but never got to take them. The class was rescheduled 3 times and then I was told that the weekend classes were canceled because the teacher quit and that I would have to transfer classes through the week. Well, I canceled because I would miss too much time with my kids, hence wanting to take weekend classes. I was informed that they dont take the books back, even unused, and I wouldnt get my registration fee back. So, im already out $130 for a class I never got to take, and I've been waiting almost a month now fir my refund that hasn't came in yet.

Petra was up front about how the sponsor program works because it is only for the CNA program. As far as tuition is concerned they will set you up on a payment plan if you cannot afford the half up front. Also they tell you that they do not do job placement although they do have a bulletin board with job openings. The staff is friendly and the classes are taught well. This is the best place if you are looking to start a new career without the hassel of a college.

They did nothing to help both my daughter (CNA classes) or myself (Pharm. Tech.) with job location, though they have previously made claims that you can get "sponsered" by various businesses. The classes were well taught and informative, for the most part, but it's not worth it unless you have a job lined up or the money up front. Research the jobs in your area before you waste your money like we did and end up with useless certificates and no job prospects in your field of study.
