I currently attend the facilities maintenance course and I feel robbed of $12k. I took the class to expand my skills and prospect it for sending future employees. I will not be sending employees here. OSHA 30: probably one of the only 2 or 3 things that was worthwhile. Construction: welcome to 1.5-2 hours of YouTube videos, power points and off topic discussion before a break to come back to labs where you're standing around for 30-45 minutes waiting for the instructor if you aren't sure about something or need any assistance. Not to mention the extreme lack of space to work. High schoolers get the whole room while adults get a 20'x20' section to build 3 mini homes in that have maybe 3' of space between them. It was honestly a miracle no one got hurt. Plumbing: same as construction but the last 2 weeks will be fiddling your thumbs without anything to do. Electrical: this class was awesome except for the teacher bragging about his boat and all its lights or his home he wired himself. Not enough time on commercial applications and way too much time on residential. Facilities maintenance is 95% commercial in the real world. Painting: didn't learn anything new that I hadn't learned from YouTube videos prior. Literally slept the entire Lead class and still passed the test for certification. Felt more like free labor to paint the school. HVAC: the absolute worst so far and only 3 days in. How is a teacher going to teach me anything when they openly admit they never worked with refrigerant prior to becoming an instructor. Not to mention he was "Home Repairs," aka a handyman prior. Points taken for coming to class in the middle of summer with shorts on?!! Points subtracted for being late or no show even though you're already getting hours docked against you for it?!! Instructor is 100% on a power trip about "professionalism." You know what's not professional, never being licensed in HVAC and teaching HVAC. 2 hours to teach how to swap refrigerant from one tank to another?!! Now to other issues. Entire class has photos taken in an adult education class, why are the only photos used in the brochures that of the 2 students who could pass as freshman in high school?!! Told at the beginning of the year the cafe would be staffed with 2 people so hot sandwiches would be available. Yeah that never happened. Their cafe is full of hot food that sits under a heater so long it could break a tooth. The cold subs are soggy unless you get them right when they come out. Honestly, gas station food is better. Save your $12k to buy the tools and materials to practice in your garage from YouTube videos, cause that's about the quality of education they provide. You don't even get a set of tools at the end of the course.
