I would not recommend Apex based on my experience in the HVAC program. If I had known the program…read morewould be like this, I would have chosen a different school. One instructor regularly made students feel stupid for asking questions, as if every question was ridiculous. He would interrupt before students could finish speaking because he assumed he already knew what they were going to say. He also reacted poorly when students fact-checked something he taught or questioned information that did not seem correct. His attitude and ego made it extremely difficult to respect him as an instructor or feel comfortable asking for help. This same instructor was involved in a physical altercation with a student after the student complained that he was not receiving help. As far as I know, no meaningful action was taken, and the instructor was still allowed to teach. Another instructor frequently spends class time on his phone gambling and discussing which teams he plans to bet on. When students ask for feedback or an opportunity to correct graded projects before submitting them, he refuses and says he already reviewed the material in class and will not explain it again. Instead of providing constructive feedback or helping students improve, he often stares at his phone and talks about sports bets. His mood and willingness to help also appear to become worse when his bets do not go well. The curriculum is poorly organized, and the school treats adult students like children. Even when instructors say they have finished everything they needed to teach for the day, students are not allowed to leave without being penalized. If you finish your work early, you may be required to sit in the classroom for hours with nothing productive to do. I enrolled because I genuinely wanted to learn HVAC and prepare for a new career. Unfortunately, both instructors left me with the impression that they were more interested in collecting a paycheck than actually teaching their students. The lack of instruction, professionalism, constructive feedback and accountability has made the experience extremely frustrating. Anyone considering Apex should speak with current and former students and carefully research other HVAC programs before enrolling.

Don Kenna and Ana Lavalyn were very professional in the class with explanations of everything and allowed us all to ask questions all we wanted. They offer multiple safety courses and a lot of my fellow students had been sent to TSC by their employer(lucky for them it was free). Course cost is a bit expensive but the facility is nice and clean, spacious and very professionally run. You can tell they are a well respected company since they do safety consulting on construction sites and I have actually seen them on sites before coming here. If I need further safety training for scaffolds or etc, I will be returning.

The Astoria location is too far to get to with a babysitter after school.
