I attended the CNA program at their south-side location and just finished the program. I would not…read morerecommend this school to anyone. I would describe it as being stuck in a nightmarish experience. It started badly and progressively got worse. During my course of attendance my class was notified by school administrators that the school was under investigation by the state because their CNA program had failed to meet the required number of program hours and course content as directed by state law. The school was required to provide additional classes of instruction to my class to makeup for their deficiencies and ultimately we were allowed to finish the program albeit several weeks later than expected. These problems caused many hardships for the students but the instructors and administrators were not very sympathetic about this. Ironically they actually blamed us students for their failures and for getting in trouble with the state. If any instructors or administrators are out there reading this, my advice to you would be to accept accountability for your own actions and do not shift the blame onto students whom had no control over your actions. Maybe this is why some of you were treated badly by some students. My next piece of advice would be to do your jobs correctly in the first place and there would not have been any problems. Of course this advice is directed solely to those five-instructors and four-administrators that were part of this problem. You know who you are. We students didn't enroll in and pay for your program to be put through these problems or to sit through each class and be insulted, blamed, and belittled by you! Unfortunately you had the upper hand and we had little choice but to put up with you just to get through the program. Keep in mind that this will cost you in the future because word of mouth gets around and people will think twice about attending your school as they should! I would agree with the other posts on here that are filtered and the others that were previously posted on here but have since been removed. Research on the net by looking the company up before you decide to buy because it may save you alot of trouble in the end. To my fellow classmates that made it through this bad experience....CONGRATULATIONS and BEST WISHES! To Samland personnel....do the right thing and provide the quality education that you should provide or get out of the business. Hope the state keeps a close eye on you for a long time to come because we students seen how slick you became even when you were being watched. Don't think we didn't notice because we did, just not gonna go into any details here. I forsee you getting into trouble again if you continue on with your behavior and don't learn your lessons. To future students....Go elsewhere, but if you don't then know that this school has had many complaints and if you are not getting what you should then you should do something about it immediately. File a complaint and get your money back because it will not get any better.
