    Easy to sign up. Dr Lamb is an excellent instructor and very professional. I gained some new useful knowledge from the class

    If you're a veteran looking for a low-impact place to burn your GI Bill while collecting BAH and…read morefiguring out your next move in life... this place is honestly perfect. Plenty of breathing room. Plenty of "personal time." Sometimes so much personal time you'll wonder if class actually started yet. Want to sleep in after years of military life? Good news -- some instructors don't even really start taking attendance until around 0830. Truly a gentle reintroduction to civilian life. Now... if you're attending because you seriously want to become a competent A&P mechanic and stay competitive in the Tidewater aviation market, then you better be prepared to carry a lot of the load yourself. They'll absolutely tell you they have "career services." And technically they do. If by career services you mean AI-generated resumes, motivational speeches, and career fairs where employers hand out stress balls and keychains while students pray someone's actually hiring. Remember: this is a for-profit school. Never forget that during the tour. Ask yourself honestly -- is the person giving me the sales pitch an educator... or a commissioned recruiter with a polo shirt and a clipboard? At the end of the day, the school only mildly prepares you for the reality that matters: passing the FAA writtens, orals, and practicals. The license doesn't magically appear because you sat in class and drank burnt coffee for 18 months. If your goal is a paid sabbatical with an extra $2200+ in BAH while easing out of military life, you'll probably love it. If your goal is becoming a highly skilled mechanic? You better be ready to teach yourself.

    I remember when this restaurant first opened as it's one of a kind. I even met the manager. Love…read morethe tapas concept. Only thing is the prices are a little too high. The prices you pay compared to amount food you get is not very filling. Even in Spain, the tapas concept matches the prices. YOU are full from your meal and content with your wallet. Love the upscale atmosphere and so will you.

    Some of the instructors are fine. I am supposed to graduate next month and we have barely, and I…read moremean barely done anything to gain knowledge regarding blueprints. Want a job? Good luck. Miss an email about a partner company coming to test students for a job? Too bad. You're not getting to take a test for that company regardless of how well you can weld. I have applied for around 25-30 jobs even as low as $16-18 an hour and still no luck. Part of me wants to think it is the schools reputation, but it's not certain. Tuition is expensive and it is going up even more for new enrollments. They made sure to say never worry about employment through the beginning as if it was only a sales pitch. My overall feeling of this school as of today is simply that they want your money, and don't care about anything else. Failing this school is actually hard to do because they push students through so they can keep getting your money. If something else magically changes between now and next month, I will update this review.

    Currently enrolling and this place is a joke. I've tried posting reviews on their google page to…read morewarn people to stay away and not make the same mistake I did and they keep getting them taken down or held under review so you can't see them. These people are crooked and they just want your money. I'm currently stuck in this hostile, unhealthy, unhelpful school environment because I have to pay them 20,000 either way. I'm stuck. They are wonderful salesmen, but that is where it ends. They tell you what you want to hear to get you to sign. Please please look elsewhere. For you, for your sanity and for your wallet.

    It is a cool place to go and learn all the way to know about culinary arts. The instructors are…read morepersonable and help you in every way.

    I'm currently a student here, and I'm very happy with my experience. The instructors are all…read moreprofessional, and certified by the ACF in their respective fields. I don't know that I've had an instructor who HASN'T worked as an executive chef or owned their own restaurant at some point. That insight into your future is very valuable. Every instructor I've had has infectious enthusiasm for teaching us their trade, and even though I work full time and it's exhausting me to go - I look forward to every class. My only complaints are tied to ECPI. CIV is actually the School of Culinary Arts for ECPI. ECPI's policies/support of the school are sometimes shady at best. First - during a blizzard in Virginia Beach, ECPI responded that "if 7-Eleven is open, we're open." Way to think about the safety of your students/instructors. I trekked in - and then STILL had to make up the class because of the instructors that said "screw this." Second, a lot is web-based. Not a problem - if ECPI could keep the internet up in the school. Internet goes down for HOURS at a time probably twice a week on campus. Third, for $36,000 per student - you think ECPI would let us keep our culinary books. NOPE. We've only got to keep 2 so far - and I'm in my 7th semester. Oh, and I have a Bachelor's Degree from the US Naval Academy, and I'm halfway through a Master's program at Embry Riddle, and ECPI only transferred 3 classes. It's all about the money! Very happy with Culinary Institute of Virginia, but wish they weren't associated with ECPI.
