As a current student in their welding program, I see firsthand all the shortcomings of this school.
Severely understaffed
Never a teacher around when you need him
I get more help from my fellow classmates than the teacher. Who is hardly there I might add.
He roams the building as if he's trying to avoid doing his job. (Teaching students on how to properly weld through different processes.)
I'm not saying that he's incompetent. But I am saying he slacks on the job. The school overall is under a lot of financial pressure.
Which explains why we constantly are running out of oxygen, propane and argon. Which can take days to fill the order.
Overall: so poorly managed, your tools get stollen on a regular basis, no teacher to be found when you need help, and the language barrier is tough. The teacher speaks broken English. And is not easily understandable.

At first I am hesitant to go to school because I am new in this place.I thought of discriminating but I was wrong.My dicision of going in this school is a good dicision I made.Aside from learning so many things that I thought I already knew,I am enjoying my schooling here.The instructors are kind and easy to get along with.All of them and the staff are very supportive of their students.And beause of that I am thankful for all them.

Currently attending Pacific Coast Trade School and it's been great. There is always a lot to learn and the instructors are encouraging and know how to do their job. I highly recommend it

Coming to this school was the smartest choice i have made. They provide Financial Aid, Flexible Scheduling and even Child Care. The instructors here are amazing, they are right by your side every step of the way. The instructor, Mrs. Lopez, is the funniest, encouraging, and most loveable person you will ever meet. :D

I have been attending the Medical Assisting Program at Pacific Coast Trade School. They are teaching me how to work in the front and back office. I would highly recommend anyone to attend this school or program. There is a lot to learn and it's great that this school provides the help from teachers and other staff as needed.
