If you are considering furthering your education at Fortis College in Baton Rouge, I highly recommend it. My experience as a student in the radiologic technologist program has been nothing short of amazing. Ms. Kacey Roberts is an exceptional instructor with over 20 years of experience and knowledge in the field of radiology. I also have to give a shout out to Mr. Mike and Mrs Kristen for being great teachers and always showing up on time and ready to help with whatever we needed. The environment on campus is welcoming, and the faculty will be there to greet you with a smile and say hello. My peers have been supportive and we have all learned so much in the two years with Ms Kacey. Thank you Fortis for helping me in this journey to starting my dream job!! read more

I only stayed a few weeks. The beginning of the second week the teacher of one of my classes started changing the Syllabus, and homework assignments everyday. From Adding assignments to throwing out homework. I have never experienced any type of teaching like that. Plus this school pushes you to take out student loans, even when you want Pell Grant and payments of the remaining balance. They were once known as Medvence, and now Fortis. In my opinion, it's a scam. I even talked to some of their Graduates, who even told me that Fortis did not help them with finding a job, or reference from them really meant nothing to employers. read more

ITI Technical College was one of the worst choices I have ever made…read more Having studied in the drafting and design department, here is what I have noticed: 1, the teachers have a lack of care reguarding their students. They don't care to teach you, nor help you with the exception of one or two. 2, the teachers, again with the exception of one or two, are very biased, most are racist, and very rude. 3, the head of the drafting department doesn't even have a degree, nor is he present in the evening classes most of the time. If he is teaching a class, multiple people have stated he just leaves early and let's them work by themselves with no help. 4, the facilities are terrible, wires are exposed and ran everywhere so people can trip over them, the bathrooms are not taken care of, the air conditioners may work on occasion, and the floors are always disgusting. 5, the dean of education has a lack of care when it comes to staff complaints; for example: teachers hazing students, insulting them, deleting files from students cloud, etc. She ignores it and goes about her day. 6, the cost of the school absolutely is not worth the quality of teaching and resources you receive. 7, the student surveys each term. Nobody reads them nor do they care. No action has ever been taken on a single student survey. So all in all, definently would never recommend going to this school. Absolute waste of money, and two years of my life.

This school is a scam I graduated in 2007. I still unable to find a job, and large sum outstanding…read morestudent loan payment to pay back.

The training content was boring, but that certainly wasn't the fault of LanTec (thanks, GM)…read more Overall, super satisfied with the facility. It looks relatively new. Everything is clean and well laid out. There is a friendly receptionist at the entrance, coffee & cappuccino available, and of course, lots of classrooms for computer training sessions. I assume they also arranged the catering, which was great because our lunch consisted of jambalaya, white beans, and salad. Yum. I hope that we use this place again sometime in the future.

As a graduate of Fortis College, I am here to say I had a wonderful experience! Every teacher in the facility is friendly, and most of all, supportive. I never felt lost once I made my way into the building; there was always someone there to help me and answer any questions I may have. I spent two years with Fortis, and they became my family. With any educational experience, you get from it as much as you are willing to put in. Fortis provided the tools and one on one help to navigate my way to my desired field, making it very smooth. I am forever grateful of my teachers at Fortis, they really are top notch! read more

Mrs. Ashley is such a great instructor at Fortis College. She makes learning feel less stressful and really takes her time to make sure everyone is keeping up. You can tell she truly cares about her students and wants to see us succeed. She's very supportive, easy to talk to, and always brings good energy into the classroom. No matter what, she's willing to help and explain things in a way that actually makes sense. I appreciate everything she does for her students, and I'm glad to have her as one of my instructors! read more

Does not care about students!!!! Lovers.of money not education. Dean Trevonda is careless. Pretends she cares and is godly but these people are nothing but wolves in sheep clothing. Do no go to this school if you want to flush money down the toilet. Just read the past reviews for this school in all states where located. Same thing a money scam Written by past employees as well as students. They dont wvwn deserve a 1 star. I pray they get investigated. read more

I love Fortis college, and the instructors I love telling my family and friends that they should extend their education. Fortis is a very friendly school the staff is top tier amazing and we always have little celebrations and events to keep the school alive. I would choose Fortis over any other college because they have shorter programs teachers are able to move your pace kind of. read more
