I discovered this school from an ad on Craigslist promising students an internship at the end of their course of study. The teacher of the EKG/Phlebotomy class was unorganized and we never once opened the books we were given to use. In fact, the teacher went OVER class time to tell us personal stories about his life. We were supposed to get out at 9PM and didn't leave until 9:30-9:45 sometimes. I wouldn't have a problem with this if we were actually being taught EKG or Phlebotomy, but I didn't pay to hear personal stories. I did pass the certification, but barely, as what we were taught in class had little resemblence to the actual test questions. The MOST disappointing facet of this experience is that I came to this program over all others SPECIFICALLY because we were offered an internship, which means experience that would get my foot in the door. It has been three weeks since I passed certification and students are still being ducked left and right with regard to the internship. I am going to get an internship or I am going to get my money back. Either way be very wary of any program offered by this school and definitely do NOT go there if they tell you there is an internship because there isn't. I saw this internship ad on craigslist, which is where they troll for students, getting them interested by offering them an internship, however if you go to their website you will notice that they only offer "job placement assistance" under the EKG/Phlebotomy section. This is a new program and that description of the course wasn't up on their website when I started it or I would have avoided the program altogether for an accredited one. The internship was the only selling point. Do you research and don't fall for this place, it will only make your wallet $600 lighter!!!
