  I am currently enrolled in the Collision Repair Program, and I am extremely disappointed with the education and training I have received. Although the program is scheduled to close after July 2026, I would not recommend it to anyone if it were offered again in the future. Before enrolling, I was informed that I would learn hands-on collision repair and refinishing skills, including vehicle repair and painting. I was also shown examples of work supposedly completed by previous students, which led me to believe that the program would provide substantial practical training. Unfortunately, my experience has been very different. Over the course of nearly a year, the majority of the program has consisted of computer-based coursework, with very limited hands-on training. While theoretical knowledge is important, collision repair is a skilled trade that requires extensive practical experience. The few opportunities we have had to work on vehicles were limited to basic tasks such as removing and reinstalling doors, hoods, bumpers, lights, and wheels. These exercises provided minimal instruction in actual collision repair techniques. I’m currently in a class were the instructor doesn’t have access to the class roster nor it’s teaching agenda. A skill that I’ve acquired has been learning to wash the campus presidents car. I didn’t already know how to properly hook up a power washer to the water and electricity. So that’s a life skill!!! The refinishing portion of the program was equally disappointing. On several occasions, we lacked the proper materials and equipment needed to perform tasks correctly. The structural repair class was taught without access to a functioning frame machine, making it difficult to gain meaningful experience in a critical area of the trade. A paint class with only one paint gun for a class of 12 students. When I expressed my concerns to the administration, I was told that the program was intended only as an introduction to collision repair and that anyone seeking to learn the trade properly would need to obtain employment in the industry and receive training on the job. This was not the expectation that was presented to me before enrollment. The financial and personal sacrifices required to attend this program have been significant. I will be responsible for approximately $30,000 in student debt and have spent nearly three hours commuting each day, four days a week. I also accepted a reduction in income in order to attend classes. Given these sacrifices, I expected a much higher level of instruction and hands-on training. Overall, I feel that the program failed to deliver the education and practical experience that was promised. I am deeply disappointed in the program, its administration, and its ability to adequately prepare students for careers in the collision repair industry.

  I wouldn’t recommend the HVAC program. It costs 32,000 dollars and a majority of it is certifications that you absolutely could get on your own without paying for the school and instead paying for the individual certifications. they promise labs, but they are so rare and few and far between because all of the money that YOU pay as a student goes to the welding program… this was admitted by a teacher in a conversation, amongst which that seems to be most of what the teachers do… talk amongst each other, mostly because the school wants your money and doesn’t really want to teach at an effective level. They also will refuse to truly help you with much of anything, I am transgender, I have been since I was 14 years old. I have gone to other schools and gone by my preferred name at all of them with no issues, they refused to make any real effort outside of emailing teachers to use my preferred name to change my name in the system. This was the first thing that I mentioned when signing up for the school, because I do not want to be referred to by a name that nobody calls me anymore and deeply upsets me. They can be highly disrespectful, and everyone claims they have no power to do anything about anything… It felt like a waste of time, and I am quitting tomorrow.
