At the time, I didn't feel confident in the material, our "textbook" was basically just slides from the 5th edition, not a real textbook. There was no hands-on training either, just a quick look at some scissors and a basket, followed by a few tests. Since so much time had passed, I decided to buy an updated exam study guide on Amazon and study for weeks. I ended up passing the state exam on my first try. I had heard that externships were a hassle, so I skipped it, but that made it tough to find a job without experience. Looking back, I wish I had enrolled in a longer, more comprehensive course that included hands-on training. It would've made a big difference.

In the future if you make multiple interviews do all the interviews before choosing the person you want to hire so you don't waste everyone's time.

In response to the "review" from Jackie P. of Lodi…read more Its amazing how so many people "complain" about UEI and how UEI does not "find them a job". No school, including UEI promises to secure you employment! No, what we do promise is do do OUR part to give you (the student), the education (if YOU work at it), the tools (if you are PRESENT) and the resources (if you put in the TIME and WORK) to find sustainable employment in your field. I'm flabergasted at the reviews ans some of these students A.) didnt attend daily or B.) mosey'd into class when and where they saw fit or C.) didnt stay in compliance with policies including uniforms....or even a mixture of all. This is COLLEGE and you enroll as an ADULT yet a lot of students dont act like it, then in turn leave reviews like the one left by Jackie P. It doesnt matter what college the administration came from....the administration was not the cause of institutions like "Heald and Marinello Beauty Schools" (as she mentioned) closed down. I was a Heald student as well and was directly affected. Its way bigger than UEI's staff being the so called cause of their closure. UEI is NOTunprofessional, its actually one of the more professional establishments I have come into contact with. Federal money (funding) is obtained from the Dept of Education to ASSIST students in coming to school. It is not obtained fraudulently, it is approved by the federal govt and we are a fully accredited institution. You should research before commenting. Interesting how this comment comes directly after a HUGE graduation ceremony celebrating the many students who worked their way through their programs. Im wondering if you are just mad because you were not part of that? Or why even? UEI is not perfect, and we serve a population that normally gets tossed by the way side. Im very proud of the work UEI does, proud of the campus as a whole and the diversity in that campus. Im extremely proud of the strides UEI has come since opening the Stockton campus in 2011, because the UEI schools have actually been in business since 1982. Dont let a disgruntled student's review hinder your success. Come see UEI for yourself!!!! There is an opportunity coming up to sit in on classes I believe 8/23....stop by... get a feel for the campus and collect information!!! MAKE YOUR OWN DETERMINATION!

I was at the NCCC crane course! My time their on campus was for the National Commission of…read moreCertification of Crane Operators. Most of the classes consisted of Vets. with disabilities ranging from 80%-100%. While they may qualify for the course, the qualified operator has to be physically fit to operate,(not limited to company policies and OSHA)! It is a excellent course as set forth by NAHET's! Problems that I see is that during the first phases of admittance they are some how persuaded that after they finish their training they will have a free job card. How can you as a individual believe that an organizations responsibilities are to have job waiting for you? Individuals that can't read the manufactures recommendations, couldn't retain information, and failed test after test after test. Waiting for the end of the course and is expecting to go straight to work. I remember one of the guys in the previous reviews and that is what prompted me in writing this piece. He doesn't have any buisness around this machinery. And so I can see how he could be upset in wasting his time. Had failed every test taken, he couldn't operate his car, much less a 100,000lb crane. I have with me the 3 of the 6 operators out of that last class I taught that really showed me they had the ability and witch they make 30,000 a month. Organizations don't handout free jobs and anyone that feels they earned it by letting the tax payers pay for you to go to a learning institution is wrong on so many levels. The candidates aren't the only one to blame. The grant that's given to the disabled Vets knowing the physical capacity to obtain such work, the school that enrolled a disabled Vet. Before sending him to a DOT physical, the disabled Vet that went forward wasting the tax payers money knowing, no one will hire one that cannot read, that has no depth perception or hand to eye coordination, that has disabling medical conditions, that can't retain a piece of course material. Remember that while reading bad reviews there are always a two sided story. And I do hope that they read this first before trying to imply they weren't treated fairly, it was to hard and that it's someone else's fault! Thank you for your time.

Carrie has deliberately chose to ignore my attempts to reach her and to discuss the matter over the phone. Her email was a in passing, and pathetic excuse for someone at her level. Per usual.. another non-profit that claims they hold space to the community, but don't in reality. Tread lightly at this school. Document everything, don't trust fiscal, and do not think they will support you in any way unless it relates to funding their financial numbers. Look at the reports.. they statistically fail.
