    I'm currently a student here studying to be a Surgical Technician and I can say the school is very helpful and they try there best to get everyone finished with good grades and be able to get out of school with a job! Veronica is a great teacher she loves to teach and food heheh but she makes the in person class enjoyable! I'm glad to say that I have only witnessed nothing but good teachers and great staff.

    Should be ZERO stars! This school is a complete SCAM! Do NOT enroll here. They lost their licensing from BVNPT back in Feb and did not tell their students. They are NOT honest! They will lie to your face and pretend everything is okay. They are money hungry and that's all they care about. All other programs here are now under PROVISIONAL license! DO NOT GO HERE! Find another school!!!

    This school is awesome!! I started on September 5th and have had nothing but a great experience! I'm currently enrolled in the Medical Assistant Front and Back Morning Session!!! The classes are small and put you in a one on one learning setting. My Professor Dr. Kim Velasco has made this month here so far fun and yet challenging at the same time. The front office staff from Ms. Grace, Ms. Belinda, to Ms. Teresa and Ms. Jeanette, all these ladies are knowledgeable and welcoming! They're always there to help you if you need it or just to talk if your concerned about your progress. Thanks premiere career college!!!

    I wanted to come back and update my review now that I've had the opportunity to have some of my…read moreconcerns addressed and gain a better understanding of certain things within the program. As I get closer to completing my course, I can genuinely say that my overall experience has been a positive one. I take my education very seriously and hold myself to high standards, so naturally I tend to pay attention to the little things. After having a conversation with Campus Director Aldwin, I felt much better about some of the concerns I previously had. He took the time to listen, answer my questions, explain things I wasn't aware of, and reassure me that my hard work and dedication are seen and appreciated. I really want to give him recognition for always making me feel comfortable enough to bring up any questions or concerns I may have. I also want to recognize the administration. Karissa, who helped me when I originally enrolled, has always been welcoming, helpful, and has a smile on her face. Aldwin and the front office staff have also done a great job of making me feel comfortable and like I belong here. Communication with administration has been very good throughout my experience. I've also learned that some of the things I was concerned about, especially when it came to student recognition and support, are handled a little differently than I originally understood. Having those things explained to me definitely gave me a different perspective. No school is going to be perfect, but what matters to me is knowing that when I have a concern, there are people willing to listen, communicate, and help find a solution. I'm looking forward to becoming a senior in the next couple of weeks and finishing the rest of my program strong. For now, I'm updating my review to four stars, and I'm hoping that by the time I finish my course, I'll be able to come back one last time and happily make it five.

    This review is for the SCE testing center they offer for students who are in MT SAC or from other…read moreschools, not the ACCESS test center. Back in January I scheduled an AutoCAD certification exam in this school, and this is a HUGE, beautiful community college. One of my high school friends used to go there before transferring to CPP- they offer lots of programs including engineering, arts, and science. The library is really nice and big too way larger than other schools- and they have more up to date and clean classrooms and facilities. Even the bungalow building on the east side of campus is old, but they renovated the inside including the testing center- even though I didn't pass the first attempt of my AutoCAD exam, the proctor marina still ensured I had a great experience with the certification exam process. She understands that I needed accommodations from ACCESS even as a guest coming from a different school that needs to take AutoCAD exam there as my school doesn't offer Pearson VUE testing- so she helped plan it ahead and allowed me to bring my snacks and water for the test breaks. She still remained positive even if my exam didn't go well and overall with the services the school provides including the basic needs center they do a lot of great things for the students, even if you aren't a Mountie you can visit and appreciate the sculptures that are all there- my favourite is the friendship stone :)

The meet is touted as 'the world's largest cross country invitational' I hate to admit this but based on the website, I thought it was going to be a complete madhouse but it was so well organized! There is a parking fee (paid on site and in cash) and a per person spectator fee (which you can pay online or in person). My review is two fold- a spectators view and a runners view: Spectator: You're in a huge stadium, and while you can only see the jumbotron, you're basically getting a birdeye view of the race because there are drones and cameras on the course. The sports announcer gives everyone in the arena a play by play so you aren't missing a thing. Runner: My son said the course was nice- a combination of asphalt and trail running. There was plenty of merch available and it wasn't too overpriced. The t-shirts are nice quality. Overall, this is one of the most organized invitationals I've been to. Well done!

My husband and I used to say, "I know if she can just get in, she will find her place there". This is her first year, and I can't say enough good things about this school. Besides having top notch education in mechanical engineering (her major) and research, the campus does an amazing job of keeping families involved, and also making the students feel at home. My daughter was so excited to go back to campus after winter break. She loves living on campus, and knows her professors. She has already hinted she may want to stay over for research opportunities during summer. And what is a plus is that she is just as excited to tell me about their social events. Lastly, I also love that they invited the families on campus the first week of school. We get caught up with monthly emails and video meetings. What an amazing institute all around.

After I completed my payment, a security guard comes and pulls up right next to me rudely saying "I noticed you've been parked here for a minute" implying I was trying to get away without paying. As I was about to explain that it was my first time and I completed my payment, he interrupted me saying "hold on let me finish." He goes on with whatever he has to say, obviously needing to flex his "status." I merely held up my phone to show him "payment complete" and he still goes on about not backing into spaces and what not. Whatever dude. I hope you find meaning in life.

    The counseling department gives me mixed feelings because some counselors barely helped, and others…read morewere definitely more knowledgeable. While it's great that they let you setup online appointments, I had difficulties over Zoom. And they should let you see which departments the counselors are for, so they can guide you better. One of them went over the petitioning for a degree/transfer process. I didn't know I was that close to finishing another one, but I guess most of my credits from a different community college are accepted here. However, the process is tedious and should be automated. The last counselor I spoke to seemed lazy and told me I should just do all the research myself, so it was a complete waste of time...like what was the point of the appointment, if she didn't want to help look into a program I was interested in? The financial aid office was super unhelpful with one experience I had, and I spent 20-ish minutes going back and forth with a male employee who did not tell me anything I did not already know. He was talking in circles, and I actually found the answers I wanted online myself. Teacher-wise, I feel like you need to read ratemyprofessor. But also, you won't know until you read their syllabus. If you plan to take LOG 110, avoid VT. She never contributed once to any discussion, never gave insightful advice. Everything was copy and pasted, for the homework and responses to grading. She doesn't check Turnitin percentages, so you might get dinged for using the textbook. It took her a month to grade assignments, and actually, the class started 2 days late. She claimed she was locked out of Canvas for 10 days, but we never received an extension for that or when the system was hacked and offline. Also, over 2 months later, and she had still not graded my final scores. Honestly, I feel the dean should look into this low-effort teacher because I can't refer to that person as a professor. Plus, I didn't like how another teacher (MY) is forcing students to record videos, as if it were a speech class. A lot of them seem uptight and only really there for a paycheck. She also didn't respond to e-mails initially, and was rude about a submission question I asked. Canvas sucks. If you plan to take online classes, beware of the ones that use Honorlock and require you to pay for software, that connect to Canvas. I believe the library has most textbooks, but reserve them in advance because you can only check them out for so long. So far, I haven't like most classes because of how poor the content is. All of the PowerPoints I have read were bare bones, bare minimum, and didn't offer anything the textbook didn't. A lot of teachers also just add videos, which is fine, but it's a cop-out. But, I feel like they should include their own lecture material and share what they learned over the years. The one class that I am somewhat okay with is English C1001, but a lot of classes tend to have things due on Mondays, Wednesdays, and a weekend day. The quizzes don't count as points for each question, like most other classes. But, for every essay, of which we have four, Curington requires an outline, prewrites, research/lab assignments, and a first draft. The peer outlines are okay, if the other classmate cares enough to try. He leaves feedback for most assignments, which I appreciate. I have yet to visit the campus, but I look forward to visiting the observatory on a Friday evening. (Parking is free in LOT C.) I thought I would like RHC, but I might switch schools, if I don't end up liking the logistics management program.

    The school is beautiful and has incredible instructors who are very knowledgeable. However, there…read moreis a problem with the assistance department, specifically in the welding and heavy-duty mechanics departments. In the welding department, it is frustrating that even though students pay to use the equipment and also pay for their consumables, there are still limitations when it comes to getting help. There is also a sort of hazing-type environment where students can feel uncomfortable asking for assistance because they are threatened with having to pay for equipment if it gets broken. No offense, but some of the stingers are already very old and in poor condition, so it does not feel fair to put that responsibility on the students. The heavy-duty mechanics department has a similar issue. Students can become afraid to ask for PPE when working with oil and other potentially dangerous chemicals because the assistant has an angry tone and can come across as unprofessional and unapproachable. For example, when students ask for gloves, it can be made into a bigger issue than it needs to be. It sometimes feels as if the assistant is paying for the gloves out of his own pocket, when in reality, students are paying for the class and should be able to have the necessary PPE to work safely. Overall, I really like the school and appreciate the instructors who are knowledgeable and willing to teach. However, I believe the assistance departments need to improve how they communicate with students and how they provide support. Students should feel comfortable asking for help and requesting the necessary safety equipment without feeling intimidated or embarrassed. If anyone has felt the same way, please don't be afraid to comment on my comment. It would really help to get the school get this looked at.
