I originally wrote my review earlier in the program, and things have since taken a negative turn. The owners became very strict with my cohort and displayed discriminatory behavior towards the rest of the class, who were Mexican, while I was the only white person. It was evident through body language and the instructors' tone that they had issues with everyone. Three students struggled to understand the material, and I ended up helping them on my own time, which shows they were afraid to ask for help. The class faced constant reprimands about punctuality, despite the clinic having poor parking, requiring us to park far away. Jacklyn, the owner's wife, often argued with her husband, Joe, during clinical sessions, making the environment toxic and frustrating. It was clear our cohort, although only eight people, was not liked. For instance, we didn't receive any congratulations or farewell party, unlike other cohorts. I'm not saying we need one to feel validated but why are you going to tell us that's what other classes have gotten and post pictures if you're not going to do it for everyone?! While the education provided is decent, they charge excessively for every little thing. I would have preferred a place that wasn't focused solely on profit, cared about students, and supported their success. Recently, I reached out about renewing my AHA BLS card, which I had when I started since I was already in the medical field. The owners had told me I could get a replacement when it expired in 2025, as it was included in my tuition. However, despite multiple calls and emails, I received no response. It's not surprising, but disappointing that this is still their way of dealing with students. Credit should be given when due, and it's unfortunate they don't treat you well, even when you bring them business. My advice is to save your money and look elsewhere, especially if you have a skin tone darker than white. read more

Excellent & affordable CNA program. The material in the classroom was straightforward and was useful when taking the licensing exam. Veronica, our clinical instructor, was great and very helpful as well! read more

After I read the owners AI generated, nasty retaliatory response which was very predictable that never answered my original question I would strongly suggest that no one would ever consider having anything to do with this place and look elsewhere. If they train their employees and the people who take their calls the same way they train their students then that is all anyone needs to know about them. read more

3.5/5 The reviews on the school made me chose it for my CNA certification. Although, Just recently the owners started having other people teach their courses. I was taught by Roxy , it was her first time teaching but she made the class informative and not boring! The con of this program was that the schedule would be constantly changing, it was very frustrating for us as students to find out last minute our exams were canceled or clinical days would be postponed. Roxy would do her best to prepare us for what the schedule was for the weekend (I took the 12 day weekend class). But out of her control, the owners would tell us last minute if there was a quiz, or change up the schedule. Also trying to communicate with them was impossible. Myself and other classmates all spoke how our questions would go unanswered or take weeks to email us back...very frustrating. Sometimes we'd email the owners and get left on read. The owners seem to not care for their students anymore. No study sessions or extra guide was given for the state exam after we asked. Overall, the program was the cheapest in terms of tuition but unprofessional as they didn't stick to the schedule, didn't reply to our emails and had to push back our end date. read more

CPTC is the best! I was lucky enough to snag a last minute spot for the IV class and was so glad I did. They run some specials on their IG so be sure to follow them. The class itself was very efficient, informative, and fun! I took this IV class the weekend before I started my RN new grad program and the confidence it gave me to be able to practice on a real life person was very beneficial to my practice. Thanks Jaclyn and Joe! read more

California Providers Training Center - August 2022 IV class - Vocational & Technical School Near Me - Orange, California

I registered online to reserve a seat for $175 to start class in July. I had paid the registration in February or March of this year. Anyway,i read the refund policy and it said if the student doesn't show up for the orientation, you will not get a refund back. HOWEVER I WENT TO THE ORIENTATION. AND THEY are refusing to refund me my registration fee when I havent even started class yet.! It's still April and class isn't until Mid July! How is that ethical? Communication is bad also. There's only 2 instructors so I hope you guys get the education you guys deserve. They aren't affiliated with as much hospitals and they don't promise job replacement. I Highly Recommend procareer Academy for a WAY lower tuition and NO REGISTRATION fee and job placement is guaranteed according to a friend who went there. Its in Whittier. Stay away from this school. They are quick to take your money but have every excuse in the book to not give your money back. Check out the vibe first and see IF u like the school. DO NOT PAY THAT $175 ONLINE REGISTRATION FEE BC YOU WILL NOT GET IT BACK .TUITION IS $1800 HERE. PROCAREER IS WAY LOWER AND COVERS SCRUBS/LIVE SCAN/STATE EXAM . THIS SCHOOL IS A JOKE read more

If you're looking into taking a CNA class, come to CPTC! 100% recommend them!! Jac & Joe were both amazing instructors. Both made sure we were prepared to take our state exam.

Stop looking anywhere else and take your CNA class with them! read more

5 stars to the instructors! Ruben was a great instructor who was very helpful in helping all of us pass this CNA program. He made sure that all of us were throughly prepared for the exams of the program and for the state exam with patience, kindness, and good humor. Roxy was very kind and welcoming to me in the admission process to this school and was very accommodating if I had questions or concerns. Melissa was also a great and kind instructor who cared greatly about us passing the state exam, but also about preparing us for the real world. Thank you all for making my experience at CPTC a rewarding and wonderful one! read more

I had such a great experience getting certified through California Providers Training Center. I took the 5 week CNA course and I am very pleased with the results. Joe & Jaclyn really took their time to explain everything to us to make sure we all understood. Classroom was very comfortable and clean. And they charged far less than all the other schools. I will be returning in a few weeks to get my HHA certification as well. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE GUYS!!! read more

So glad I came to this place. I came and took ACLS, EkG and BLS course. The EKG course was so helpful, it helped me pass my EKG Entry RN job exam. The only thing I regret was not finding them sooner and taking their EKG course during my advance medsurg class. I definitely recommend this amazing organization for our your certifications and renewals. read more

California Providers Training Center is the best place to go to. Jaclyn and Joe provide you with small classes which makes you comfortable. I never once felt that I was left out because the instructors are so attentive to everyone. They have extensive experience, network and care for their students I looked forward to coming to their class every day! If I were to do a CNA program, I'd choose them 10/10 every time! read more

Jaclyn and Joe are by far the best instructors you could ask for. They put so much time into providing the best education their students. By providing their students with a safe encouraging learning environment. They do an excellent job of prepping you for the CNA exam. If you're looking for knowledgeable caring instructors, well equipped facility, with flexible class schedules, this is it! I highly recommend this program. read more

If you're looking to get your CNA certification, enroll at CPTC right now!!! I did a lot of research about CNA training programs in OC before enrolling, and I'm super glad I chose CPTC. Jaclyn and Joe did such a great job preparing me for the exam, and without them, I would not have passed. I was super impressed from my first meeting with them because they were very transparent about what to expect and prepared with all the information I would need as a student. I HIGHLY recommend CPTC to start your CNA journey! read more

If you are looking to get your CNA I highly recommend coming here. The classes are very small and there is a lot of one on one with the instructor. Jaclyn and Joe are both RNs and they know their stuff and they both make themselves very available to their students. They are such great teachers that my class and I all passed our state exams on the first try and I can honestly say we were more prepared than any other person on testing day. Here you are given all the tools to succeed, but its up to the student to put in the work . So what are you waiting for?? Go reserve your seats!!!! read more

Instructor was cool. Class wasn't bad. But I had to pay $100 in late fees for a late payment and we still haven't taken our state test (finished the course over a week ago) Keep getting the run around about when state test is. Bothered how quick the money got taken but how long I have to wait for a test. Would be cool to see the late fees reimbursed but doubtful that'll happen so I won't even try. read more

I am a nursing student & felt like I needed more help with skills and EKG's. CPT was able to assist me as well as a few of my other classmates too! I took the IV class and now I don't miss IVs any more! I also took the EKG pharmacology course as well. Joe is extremely knowledgeable. I also did my BLS renewal class with them. Highly recommend. read more

If you ever need to renew or even get a new certification this is the place to go! I completely forgot I had to renew my BLS cert. and was able to get the soonest class with no trouble. The instructor was Joe who was very professional and knowledgeable. He answered any questions I had and made everyone feel comfortable. I even was able to get my certification card that same day!! I will absolutely be coming back for my other certification renewals. You won't regret taking your class here. read more

I did the evening cna program class during the summer and it was a great experience. The program was led by Joe and Jacklyn, they were very helpful throughout the process. Always giving tips and answering all the questions we trouble with. I felt well prepared for the cna exam. I would recommend this program for any one who is looking to become a cna. Overall great instructors, nice classmates, and the class environment felt comfortable. Thank you Joe and Jacklyn. read more

Amazing class and staff!! Took the IV class and feel very prepared for clinical rotations now. Will be back for PALS/ACLS certifications very soon!!! read more

Absolutely wonderful! This class was so interesting and exciting. The owners and teachers, Jaclyn and Joe, put their heart and soul into making this class successful. And the cost of this class is extremely affordable. I've already recommend California Providers Training to four other prospective students. You won't be let down! read more

I am beyond glad I found CPTC on Instagram. If you're anything like me, anxiety is my roommate and being able to see what the class looked like helped me in knowing what to expect. Also smaller classes meant I could get the help I needed from the instructor (Jaclyn!!) and my peers. I haven't been in school related environments in years and the past 5 weeks couldn't have gone better. Theory class was easy to follow and clinical was very eye-opening. We've all bonded with our shadow CNA's and patients. Our class has become so tight-knit, we couldn't imagine not working together and now we're hired at the same facility! Look no further because you'll find the best duo--Jaclyn and Joe!! They'll have so much done for you regarding background checks, exam scheduling, ebook purchase, and more. Other locations will have you doing these things on your own for additional cost and you're not guaranteed professionalism and friendliness that comes naturally from CPTC. If you're as lucky as I am, you'll even meet some of the best people who become incredible friends and colleagues. I can't wait to return for IV class! read more

I participated in their IV training course and had a fantastic experience. Jaclyn and Joe (the instructors) were both professional, kind, and provided HANDS-ON training. I highly recommend the course to any nursing student/medical professional who wants to improve or get over some first time IV jitters. Give them a try! I plan on taking other courses in the future. read more

California Providers Training Center - Hands-on training using the mannequin (which has fake blood inside). - Vocational & Technical School Near Me - Orange, California

I took the full-time course which was 5 weeks. If you put in the work and study, you'll succeed in this program. This program also provides you with a lot of tools to be successful. I recommend signing up if you're looking to get into the medical field, it is a great first step. read more

I took the IV training class today. I'm a student at another school, but felt I needed extra practice with IVs. It was an extremely enjoyable learning environment. Skills labs can feel intimidating, but the instructors are so kind and welcoming that I was able to purely focus on improving my technique. I was able to get two IVs! They also taught all of the tips and tricks that you don't get taught in school. I feel confident I can utilize the skills I learned today in future practice. I would take the class again as a refresher and I definitely would recommend them to others. read more

So glad I ran into this place. Professionalism is a breath of fresh air. Whoever runs the instagram was very helpful and understanding. I had to reschedule my class then cancel. They refunded my money the same day. A few of my friends have gone there, I wish the IV class continued but all the other classes will help others im sure. I'll definitely return if I need anything else. Definitely recommend this business. read more

Joe and Jaclyn are amazing instructors. They made me feel comfortable and confident in today's IV class. The skills and tips I learned today will be very helpful in the future. I wish them the best of luck read more

Jack and Joe crated such a welcoming safe space to learn hands on skills. 100% recommended taking classes with them. The fear/stress of learning in skills or clinical setting was not there. They made it fun and relatable, building each student up even as they corrected. read more
