    The cmap program was good and mrs.joleen made it fun to learn everything. They also help you find a job after you're done with the program.

    I would've done 1 star but I don't want to be too rude. My experience at VNS was…read morevery...interesting. Miss Josie thinks highly of herself, which is fine but she doesn't need to remind everyone that she is #1 every single day. She has no problem calling someone stupid or how she likes to say "no coconut meat" or "mulala". She had no shame on calling one of the other students "Mulala" and had no shame on doubting one of the students. She continually would say "I think ____ quit" or "I think ____ isn't going to make it as a CNA" as a teacher it is not your job to doubt a student but to encourage them. Also she can't hear a majority of the time which was quite annoying and $1600+ for the program is too much in my opinion, I did the M-F AM class, it was TORTURE. Be prepared to sit in a small room listening to Miss Josie talk on and on and on, about things that shouldn't even be mentioned in a class, AND about very personal things. The scrubs and handbook and fingerprints not being part of the $1600 price is ridiculous. $1600 is already so much and she's too cheap to include the other important necessities!? We also didn't get a graduation, which is ridiculous, just because we were are small class doesn't make us any less deserving of a graduation, she told us we'd take the final exam and have a graduation just for her to offer us a graduation the next day (after the final exam) which is crazy, we don't have free time we have jobs and school and things we need to do, it could've been planned better. Clinicals was actually pretty great, it was refreshing to not be in a lecture for 8 hours a day. I would think twice before choosing this school, I only chose it because it was closest to me, but I'd definitely choose another school if I could start over. Please choose a school that will pay for you state exams, scrubs, handbook, etc. also it's a bit weird how this school is "SO Great" and "Ms Josie is #1" when there's only 11 google reviews and only 6 yelp reviews when this school has been open since the 90's...makes you really wonder.....let's see how long this post lasts. Good luck to everyone attempting.

    I went to this CNA school while my friend went to another one so we were able to compare which is…read morebetter. Hands down, this CNA school is THE ONE. The other schools rushed their students too much and didn't guide them that well with the process of getting licensed. Vallejo Nursing School is the complete opposite. Josie is very knowledgeable and will teach you all the things you need to know to be licensed and if you are struggling, she's very patient and passionate in helping you. She provides nourishments to keep our brain active because of the long hours and keeps us entertained along the way during clinicals. She makes all of us feel like a family and all of us were very comfortable with each other considering the amount of days of only getting to know each other. It's as if the place is a safe place to be. And I was there during the peak of the pandemic. Now comes for the hard part, review week and the state exam. I have test anxiety and this was my first actual "state" exam so I was so nervous and was counting down the days to get it over with. Josie along with her staff are great support system and will NEVER make you feel alone. I sometimes get off track and lost but they're so patient and will guide you UNTIL YOU GET THAT LICENSE. THEY CARE SO MUCH. If you're considering becoming a CNA and is looking for a good school, this is it!

Justin: If it were not for Justin being at Heald College when it closed I would have never heard of this school. He also gave me information about the school that had me really excited to come and be a student here. 2. Tina: Tina has been amazing and helped make sure that I had everything that I needed and stayed on top of everything. Especially on reminding me about my make-up hours. 3. Melissa: I have not really spent as much time with Melissa as I have Tina but every time I have asked her for help she was always there. Especially when I had assignments were due and the printer in the lab was not working, she would come in and fix it like it's nothing. Such a life-saver and a grade saver! 4. Nicole: Even though she is not at this location anymore she still had did a lot for me especially making sure that my paperwork for my stuff was done. She is one of the few people that have called me to give me reminders about things that needed to be done or that were going to be due. 5. Carrie: Is another person that is not here anymore but she helped keep me on my game and Took care of anything for me that I needed help with. It sucks that she's not here to hear this but she is truly amazing. 6. Carla: I have not really done too many things with Karla but she was still very nice and had answers to questions that others did not or at least were not sure of. And she would always say hi to me when she seen me. 7. Mrs. Heather: Awesomely amazing teacher!!!! Made class very enjoyable and fun to learn. There are a lot of good memories that I will never forget. She was like one of us just not as a student haha. She also never gave up on any of us and would do anything she could to help us and make sure that we all passed the class. 8. Mrs. Raynor: Another awesomely amazing teacher who loved her students and loved teaching us all. I will say her class felt a little harder but it was still very enjoyable and fun. Just like Mrs. Heather she never gave up on her students and would do anything that she could to make sure that we all pass her class. Overall everyone here at this school is amazing. Thank you for making education fun and exciting. I really enjoyed my time here, and who knows maybe I'll come back and do another program! I love you all.

    Don't waste your time or money. I went into this school with high hope's and every excited to start…read moretraining for HVAC. Not even a month into it and I was regretting and dragging my feet to in everyday. My 1st instructor taught use more about his personal life then the actual subject. Didnt follow the way he was supposed to teach us whiched caused a big issue for those who were going to go into the next class. He passed everyone regardless. Had a motor project and passed us all even though none of us got the motor to work. He didnt really even try to get it running. You don't learn in the traditional way. You don't learn from A-Z. They will throw you in wherever the class is currently at. So you maybe learning the very end of the book before you even learn the beginning of the book which is bad if you are completely new to the subject and don't have any knowledge or experience. You don't jump into HVAC right away which is normal. You'll be doing electrical theory but my instructor didn't even go over HVAC electrical. I was learning more how to be an electrician then HVAC technician. Once I got into HVAC I was told in was going to take my certification test at the end of that month. Which is beyond stupid. They gave me a study packet to help prepare me for the test. By the time I had to take the test I failed of course but wasnt worried. Was told i had 3 attempts to take the test. The very next day after I took the 1st test i was told to take it again, and again I failed. The day after the 2nd test I was told to take it again and use the study packet because the head of the campus wants us to pass. Probably to give him a bonus or something like that. Well I'm not going to pay them to cheat on my future. I tried to talk them but the head of the campus "wasn't in today". I tired to call and kept going in to talk to him about why they wanted me to cheat. But kept getting the same response. I called them and told them I was dropping out because the cheating was the last straw. Then it seemed like they actually cared about my problem. I finally got calls back from the school and told them why I was leaving but the lady seemed not to really be paying attention and wanted me to go in and sit down with the head of the campus. I wasn't going to waste my time with them anymore. Said in was going to go in but didn't. I told them about it and they didn't seem to care until I left.

Richie and Ashley from Career services were a big help throughout the program, and were super fast at responding when I had questions. I felt that I learned a lot from my on campus teachers/mentors Ms. Crain, Ms. Oliver, and Ms. James, as well as from my online experience with Ms. Dori and Ms. Kaur. They took their time in explaining each subject in depth so that we could understand. They definitely have prepared me for the medical field. This program was absolutely worth it and I see myself going back to Unitek in the future to further my education.

She comes to class unprepared, doesn't seem to understand the material herself, and can't handle constructive feedback. Most students on campus feel the same way -- she takes everything personally and acts like she knows it all, when she should honestly be retaking MA classes to learn the basics properly. It's extremely disappointing that the school lets good instructors go while students are left wasting their time and money. I do **not** recommend the morning MA class.
