After I had a bad experience at another driving school in the area, I came to this school hoping to…read moreget 4 "Behind the Wheel" drives in without retaking the classroom portion here. The owner, Pete, was very accommodating and professional about the whole situation and scheduled my drives quickly and efficiently. They give you full driving lessons here, starting with parking strategies and real-world applications of what will be on the driving test at the DMV. They really prepared me for my driving test as well as what I see on the road every day while driving. The instructor that I had was very friendly and respectful towards me. Totally recommend.

After my child took the classroom portion, I was called to sign her up for behind the wheel to…read morecomplete both parts within 9 months. For several reasons I was holding off on the driving portion, which for any other driving school is fine. I was told from drivers edge that the state would "revoke" my child's permit if it wasn't done; totally false information - after speaking to 2 other driving schools and the DMV. The SCHOOL is the one who revokes the permit. This was a bullying tactic to get my child in within the timeframe so drivers edge could get their money. The horrid office person, Rachel, was one of the most rude, ignorant people I've ever dealt with, and I've been in customer service for many, many years. She refused to give me the number to the state person she told me does the revoking (because she was obviously lying.) Tim, the owner, was very nice and really tried to work things out, but after dealing with such a nasty person that he employs I just couldn't give any more of my hard earned money to support her paycheck. After I told him this and that I was going to take my child to finish up elsewhere, he actually started bad mouthing another driving school. I never told him who I spoke with, but it was the one he was putting down, and the shame is that the other school said not one bad thing about drivers edge. They just gave me the facts that the state doesn't revoke permits, it's either the driving school or the high school (for extremely poor grades.) My advice is ask if they will revoke your child's permit if they don't complete the course within 9 months, because it seems this is the only driving school with this policy. Also, go with someone who appreciates you as a customer and you want to support, not people who lie and are rude.

I attended RCC for 2.5 years for the Vet Tech program. It has it's pros and it has it's cons…read more PROS: -Instructors are very nice. If you are there to learn and you're determined, you will get the attention and help you need to succeed. If you are there and do not try your hardest, instructors will not go out of their way to assist you in your future. I loved all of my vet tech instructors. -It is challenging. I was not expecting such an extensive program given that it is Rockford. I was TOTALLY wrong. This is possibly the hardest program/educational course I have ever gone through. This program will pick out your weaknesses and you will need to study your butt off. This isn't a program that you can just sit back and relax in. -Price is fairly cheap. Now, given that I started the program when tuition was $36k for the entire program, RCC has made changes so those with some financial trouble are able to attend. I believe it is now $160 for each credit hour? Don't take my word for it, but prices have dropped. CONS: -Vet Tech program changed about 2-3 times while I was attending classes there. The school was undergoing some changes and that caused me to have a later graduation date than originally stated, which in turn made me upset. I was set to finish the program in December, but instead, now finishing in March. It may not seem like a huge deal, but after so long in the program, I was ready to be done. -Everyone in power is hard to get in touch with. Several times my father has tried to get in touch with the financial adviser at RCC and will not get a call back. Same goes with e-mail to some of the staff and program director. I understand that there are several students to get in touch with, but speed should be improving, especially since RCC is growing. -Staff is sometimes unpleasant. There have been several instances where I have come in contact with some grumpy people. My fellow vet tech student ordered Jimmy Johns to have delivered to the front desk so she could eat lunch during our 12 hour day in the vet tech department. When Jimmy Johns arrived, the "manager" Dewey, basically yelled at my friend that ordering food and having the front desk assistant notify her when her food was there is unacceptable and is not allowed to be done. I understand how this can be a problem, but it was like the umpteenth time she had done this. And Jackie at the front is not always so peachy. There have been a few times she has made me sign in when I had forgotten my ID. She clearly knows me, as I have been going there for 2 years. But she is never really pleasant to me, -The front doors are open a majority of the time. We are given ID badges when we first sign up for our program and they are to be used and warn at all times. There is no need of the badges if the front doors are always open to intruders. And of course, when they do close the doors, I forget my badge, and I get blamed for not having my ID the one day they DO decide to close the doors. RCC is in Rockford and Rockford isn't really all that safe. Those doors should be close all the time except for orientation. It wasn't my favorite school, but I am glad to have gone through the Vet Tech program. Would highly recommend the program, not necessarily the school. Happy to be graduating in MARCH!
