The only reason this school exists; is the State of Tennessee Real Estate Commission REQUIRES…read moreapplicants to obtain "training" prior to taking the exams. The Real Estate Commission, composed mostly of Real estate licensees (77% by law), has taken on the task of feeding these "real estate schools" a massive stream of cash vis a vis Commission requirements. There is ZERO, ZERO, ZERO instructional design to this course. They have no idea what understanding, content, testing, reinforcement, or retention are. They don't know what the first rule of learning is. The have never heard of ADDIE, and the highest level of technology utilized in this course - is a credit card point of sale terminal. This is government level COMPLIANCE; it has nothing to do with training. I did not need to pay $375 for someone to read a book to me (anyone who needs someone to read a book to them, cannot pass this test anyway) - that is simply NOT "training." This is, at best, a misguided fleece job by the Tennessee State Real Estate Commission to pump money into the schools THEY APPROVE. I am fully capable of reading a book and taking a test. Have you actually seen a detailed syllabus? What is the approval process by the state other than a compliance of TIME of study? Seriously? The state mandates that an applicant receive 60 hours of training, but don't demand course content actually train students - come on. I wa told that 85% of CLI students pass on the first attempt. 1). THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE based on the class I attended. 2). Get ANY statement of pass ratio in writing - but I personally guarantee they will not give it to you, which means.. 3) Any training course that isn't guaranteed, is exactly that!!! Any student that would pay $375 for a training course and then fail the course without the ability to be retrained for taking the test again - at no additional charge - is appropriate. One of the instructors actually made fun of handicapped persons in class while "teaching" a subject. The instructor said hurtful things about mental health care. These people should be setting a professional tone for the future employees of an industry - not ifosterin / facilitating discrimination. This is a money machine; nothing more and nothing less. It was a waste.

Telling me I don't get his 'course' for free and insisting I had not paid him and then minutes later telling me he found my payment must have been very hard for him to choke out. Calling it a technical error in response to my complaint to the state was laughable. Telling me my bank made a mistake was ludicrous and he started back peddling when I mentioned receipts. Banks are notoriously efficient in financial matters aren't they Roddy? Anyway, I'm done with the fool, I got my money back, he still has his little course and the world is much the same as it was before I ever heard of that little turd.

The online course was flawless. My main issue was signing up with the Tennessee Core website. The…read moreinstructions that were provided did not match what I was seeing. I already have an account on that website. The instructions only showed if you were a first time user. I have sent emails asking what are the streps and I did mention that the instructions given did not go with what I was seeing. I sent another email asking the person a question to see if I was in the right spot and what to fill in. I never got a response back. They say there are zero refunds. I can easily put a dispute on my credit card and get my charge back. I should do this since my course and test is worthless without that Tennessee website. I will not recommend this since they are unwilling to assist.

You communicate with live chat and are wearing a headset with a microphone to talk to them as well. My first day, I tried two different headsets and the mics did not work. Second day my headset mic did work first try, that was much easier. My biggest complaint is that the monitors you use (one for the instructor view, one to work on beside it) are too small for what you're doing. I realize my eye sight isn't great, but it's a Photoshop class. You are editing photographs with very detailed improvements, a small monitor doesn't cut it. I understand that many other cases wouldn't really need large monitors - but photo editing and graphic design, come on. For what you pay, you should expect top notch technology. The instructor was very good, and I did enjoy the training. The facility is modern and clean, but no break time areas in their suite, but the building itself had a lobby and adjacent deli. They get one point for baking warm cookies every afternoon, but then the point is half deducted because there's this sign with a cartoon cookie monster that says take one and leave the rest for everyone else. I get it, but just seemed a little off putting. But I guess I'd be more upset if some joker had come through and eaten all the cookies.

Our experiences at New Horizons in Nashville and their corporate office in West Conshohocken, PA…read morehas a tremendous opportunity to improve. The relationship starts out well. The person who signs you up at New Horizon, you are equivalent to a sale/commission for them. As is normal in business, things are well at the beginning. One stream of revenue that New Horizon receives is money from the respective states through different work programs i.e. people unemployed, people who are veterans etc. The reality and the weaknesses voiced for a minimum of two years that have gone unanswered. Let's take the PMP [project manager professional] course that New Horizon offers. In any service, you have quality metrics. There are different teachers who teach this course. New Horizons does not have an maintain metrics that all teachers teach the same coursework to students. Despite students sharing this, students remained ignored. The PMP book, 6th edition, is a reference book, it is not a study guide. New Horizons used to provide a Crosswinds Study Guide, which they discontinued in mid 2018. New Horizons did not replace the study guide. Students are studying for a very difficult test -- a study guide would be needed. To date, New Horizons Nashville will not address this concern that students have raised. We, students whose fees are paid by the State of Tennessee are ignored. This even includes being ignored by the owner of this independent New Horizons Nashville location, Shawn Gilbride. Mr. Gilbride sent an email stating to remove his name from the email dialogue bringing up students concerns. Shawn Gilbride does not respond to emails. Shawn Gilbride does not respond to voicemail -- ever from students. Shouldn't this be communicated up front? Should the State of Tennessee know this? The goal of New Horizons Nashville and New Horizons other locations is to support students with the current and applicable resources to pass the respective exams we're preparing for. The message is clear. New Horizons and New Horizons Nashville cares about their revenue -- load in the respective students to receive the money from the State of Tennessee and respective states. All of us have to be accountable to someone. All programs have metrics. This is severely broken with the New Horizons corporate structure. There are so many layers of executives and leaders, that no one is concerned. How do we as students know this? Because we contacted the corporate office -- it took us about six weeks of reaching out to the New Horizons team in West Conshohocken, PA. Most of the people there were more lost than we were. Finally after six weeks, we were connected to someone [we can get this name and number from our records] who was trying to get a message to New Horizons Nashville. Do you know that goal still was not to remedy the problem. What are the problems? 1. The teachers who teach for New Horizons are not consistent, with minimal metrics with what PMP students are taught. 2. New Horizons has saved money be removing the study guide, and not replacing it with a new study guide. The accompanying slender Agile book is not a study guide either. It's a supplement. Thank you New Horizons for the lack of support here in preparing students for an exam. 3. A primary partner of New Horizons is Pinnacle Professional Development LLC of New Baltimore, Michigan. New Horizons Nashville doesn't care that some of the teachers don't even mention the Pinnacle partnership and resource to some of the students. There's no login. There's no return call. There's nothing. So -- no study guide. And -- now no Pinnacle resources to study for the exam. Well -- what about those who did receive the Pinnacle login. The answers to many of the questions are not up to date. Point blank. Students over the past two years have provided this information with screens shots to Shawn Gilbride [the owner of New Horizons in Nashville, TN] and the corporate office of New Horizons in West Conshohocken, PA, and to Brian Salk, the owner of Pinnacle Professional Development. New Horizons and New Horizons Nashville is in the education, training and certification business of teaching people how to pass exams. It goes without saying that, they, New Horizons, uses metrics themselves. They do not -- if it does not relate to their own immediate revenue -- much of which comes from the State of Tennesseee and the other respective states throughout the United States. It's not the responsibility of students preparing for an exam, in this case, the PMP exam -- to inform New Horizons or Pinnacle Professional Development of what's outdated in their materials. We did! After informing them for two years -- it's clear they don't care. Shouldn't New Horizons corporate and New Horizons Nashville be ahead of the curve to ensure everything is update for us? 4.

That being said, let me list the ways that from that perspective, I can provide you with my 4-star review and why they don't get a 5th star. 1. They are creative - I don't mean, they know how to use crafts and make pretty things. I mean that they have a staff and student body that is committed to creating what they envision and they WILL create it. They have the know-how and motivation to do that. 2. I am actress - from that perspective, I have been on several sets with Watkins directors, producers, production designers, ADs and DPs and they are fun-loving and ready to work. They're not afraid of a challenge. 3. Organizationally they've come a long way (sans the final star). Having worked with a local production company as a producer/and various other titles, I've found that communication is key. I will simply state that one must be ready to be open, prompt, and particularly amiable with clients they need to keep and new clients they'd like to work with long-term. It's a relationship and those take work. Finally, I like this school very much, from my POV. It's a great opportunity for creatives who attend and those who'd like to help create (moi) something memorable - something that will be there to reflect upon and hopefully, frame by frame, help to inspire and influence minds and create future filmmakers and individuals who will do so with integrity. There you have it. Take it or leave it. Or try it out for yourself. :)

Hi, I'm a 7th grader that goes to this school, its easy to navigate once you know it, now to the…read morereview reason. This school has a teacher in cluster 2 (the middle school area) named Mr. Habeck, he seems nice, but when you are breaking the rules, he turns into a asshole real fast, plus, when students talk to other teachers about their problems, Mr. Habeck, will just shut it straight down if you have been bad recently. He will even think if you cuss or yell, you are doing it for attention (which sometimes is the case) but he is wrong about being jealous of the other students, he thinks that's why some students cuss, but sometimes it's not jealousy, it's what's happening behind the scenes with the students family's, that's me and not just me but with other students as well. Mr. Mahaffey (don't know if I spelled that right) is the principle of the school, he hasn't noticed yet, because when he is around Mr. Habeck goes from, a calm demon, to a straight angel with his students. One time my filter broke and I cussed, because a teacher shoved me, and this motherfucker (Mr.habeck) thought I was doing it for attention​​​, then the next day I was talking to a teacher Ms. Devin, Mr. Habeck walks in, and just buds in being all rude, and shut down the conversation thinking I was jealous about other students getting attention, when it was for a complete different reason. Conclusion: watch out for Mr. Habeck when your here. Student of this comment: Jacob T. Smith. Date of writing: Sunday, December 28th, 2025.
