    This is me doing a blood draw thanks to the teachers at Carrington College.

    I've been going to school here for about 6 months I love it, the MA Program is wonderful the people are great but the one that helped the most is Miss Jacquelin Edward's the best teacher/administrator ever! I've learned so much medical knowledge I'm ready for the field! From Michael Chavera

    Dental Assistant Room for hands-on learning
    Elizabeth M.

    The dental assistant program is an amazing learning experience. The teachers Mrs. Baugh and Mrs. Anderson are patient and always ready to break down steps for students who need the extra help. There are rooms so we can do hands-on training for real world dental situations. We also have the opportunity for extra time/ help on Fridays, where one on one moments are available. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a new career path!

    New to the medical field and looking professional.  Graduated November 22, 2019.

They unlock a new module over the weekend, but if you are pro-active and complete the quizes or discussion board before your scheduled zoom meetings, you will lose 4 out of the 5 hours of documented homework time. Furthermore, if you call and ask around the office about an issue, there is no guarantee that the will bother to help you. The instructor made an error on the attendance sheet, forgetting to put the time out before submitting it, causing everyone in the class to get 15 minutes of the 5 hours of lab time on their official grades. It was only corrected because I said something, we submitted an amendment form weeks ago, and after following up I was told they are still working on fixing it. Here we are almost a month later and the correct times have not been adjusted. I haven't missed a regularly scheduled zoom meeting with my instructor, I haven't missed a single Lab day, but because my instructor gives students every opportunity to not succeed, I only have partial attendance credit. I get there before my teacher, am always ready to learn and work my hardest , but everytime I ask my teacher what's going on, I am told "It was covered in the syllabus, you should know this." Funny thing is I call the support line for help, use their virtual assistance on their student portal, and nobody seems to know anything. The instructor has even said " I don't know why it's not working, you will have to meet with someone during business hours." My Disappointment of the institution can not be stated enough. DO not go to this school for Electrical Technician training. I was lied to and told there was an Extension Program for on the job training. After signing the payment agreement and asking about the Extension Program again, I was told "actually Electrical Technician DOESN'T have an extension program". I.E. they make it sound fantastic when they want your money, but when you expect the results that a $20,000 program should provide, they fall far short of my expectations.

They DON'T get people jobs. As soon as you graduate the 40 hour workshop they tell you to go out and start wearing shoe leather down. I did everything they asked of me. Including first and foremost getting them their $895 from the State of Nevada. They provided me with ONE job lead. For a receptionist position. (I'm a dude!) That they had sent seven other people out to. Couldn't get so much as a bus pass out of these people. If you identify as Agnostic or Atheist they don't seem to like it. The program's very much based in faith and I'm not. They used to have an excellent substance abuse counselor but she's moved on. (Good for her) Their founder was issued a full pardon by the President in 2020 and ever since his ego's been quite a bit to take in many's eyes. Don't let them string you along with promises of employment. Because you'll discover that they're leaving that to you. I went to these people because I found myself unemployable after my release from prison and I bought what they were selling hook, line and sinker but the reality's not nearly as shiny as they'd have you believe. The only thing I will say is that to this day I remain sober and have not been back to jail and have been out of all trouble since 2019. But, all that's because of ME! Not anything Hope4Prisoners EVER did for me.

Awesome job right? Wrong. Sure they pay was great and there were amazing benefits too but the people and culture are absolutely terrible. I found myself in a position where I loved my work but absolutely hated my job. I knew I had to get out so when we inevitably got laid off due to Covid, I applied for and received a grant through DETR that is specifically designed for adults who want to change careers. I didn't look back. I knew I liked and wanted to work with my hands, I knew I couldn't be stationary and the added bonus of running diagnostics made HVAC on an obvious choice. NTI was the superior choice among the HVAC programs covered by the grant. In comparison to all, it should really be the only one. I took the hybrid course (20 chapters online and 5 weeks in person). They have awesome facilities and a bunch of different equipment for you to tinker with and learn all the ins and outs. The front staff is awesome as I'm sure are the other instructors but Adam (the instructor I had) is the shit. He legitimately cares if you understood the material and what's happening in the systems. He'll come in early before class to work with you if you're struggling and he'll stay late just the same. Adam is a super cool dude too, he made class really enjoyable because he clearly wasn't there to collect a paycheck and enjoys teaching a trade in which he is an expert. You probably aren't going to believe this but, on the 3rd week of class, during Wednesday's instruction I was reaaaaallly slacking off so ADAM pushed me to do something productive at least. I filled out a job application on indeed for one of the top HVAC companies in town and since I had time, I wrote a good cover letter. I was called the very next morning for an interview! I started work on monday of week 4! Two weeks BEFORE graduation.... Now I make waaaaay more than I did ironworking and it's significantly easier. Guys it won't be easy and it'll take a lot of work but if you want to better yourself you must CREATE YOU'RE OWN PATH and take control of your life. Set a goal and commit head first.

Also the MA training by far the most mediocre training you will ever see. Most of what you learn in independent and the instructor never responds when you need help or have question. Basically you're on your own with roughly 20 assignments and discussions. Almost my entire class had so many complaints about the instructor and how she was so mean and for no reason. The instructor puts an extreme amount of homework on the students and then says "no late work is accepted " as if people don't have lives outside of school..They purposely make people have to retake the modules so they can get paid more money. The people in the office especially financial aid rarely answers or returns calls. They take complete control of your financial aid and you won't know how much aid you were approved for and or if there's excess funds and if the max is being requested etc. Then they put so many transactions on a "breakdown" that's supposed to explain what the charges are etc but it's so much b.s on there you won't even understand and it's never clear. Please save yourself from a headache DON'T DO IT!!!
