I can't lie, I was prepared to just be in and out but when I tell you she took her time on explaining, showing, and sharing her our experiences I would truly sit in any class she taught! She made me laugh most the time, she made the class feel like she's been teaching us for months! I just want her to know she's special and her energy truly makes a difference. When I have to renew my first aid card I am looking forward to just sitting there and enjoying her company for a few hours! Thank you so much Bonnie.

Never had such a negative experience like this one. The staff is really rude and the instructor of the Spanish class made a lot of rude jokes while doing the course. She was mean to a pregnant woman that couldn't understand really well how to do the chest compressions and she started yelling at her to "do it right" in a rude bad way. It was the class in Spanish but my other coworkers have been experiencing the same with the white lady in the front desk. My boss was the one that suggested us to go there but the white lady was even rude to her this time so we're never going back!

Worst phone customer service experience. Kris who answers…read morethe phones was rude and unhelpful. She doesn't actively listen and will cut you off in mid question/sentence. I was close on canceling all together and find a different location, but only stayed due to its close driving distance from home. The instructor, JJ, on the other hand was awesome. He made the class enjoyable and was both engaging and thorough. Especially liked how he spoke in repetition to help us better remember key steps.

I just finished my 4 week theory and clinicals for the CNA program at the El Cajon Campus. Dr. Ray…read morewho taught is in theory (class time) was great! The fast paced program requires some self discipline to study and practice the skills on your own time. We spent 2 weeks (full time) in class and then spent 2 weeks in a skilled nursing facility for clinicals. There was always time for questions and extra help if needed. It is a great program for people who are getting started in the medical field and want to pursue nursing but do not want to make a long term commitment just yet for schooling. There is a few weeks (possibly up to 4 weeks) between the time that you finish clinicals and the time that you can take the state exam, because you have to wait for the state to confirm and approve your class/clinicals hours. This part is a little frustrating - but it is the state and not the school that dictates this waiting period.

I couldn't have chosen a more professional and courteous company for this service to improve the Safety Program at my business. Thank you Carlo!

Bonus that the class was only $49, compared to another agency I was looking at that charged $90. Overall an 11/10 experience!!

At one point, I tried to ask her a question about whether the breathing part actually delivers enough oxygen, but her answer was for a different question. I felt like she didn't take the time to listen to what I was asking. The CPR training was reasonable, but the First-Aid part was barely addressed. I recently completed a NOLS/WMS Wilderness First-Aid course through REI, and I felt like I learned so much there. And while being in the wilderness may be a significant difference in circumstances, the injuries are not. Blisters, heat-exhaustion, impalements, etc. can all happen anywhere, especially with children. But in the end they were quick to respond to my email, and I got my certification in less than 2 hours, on a holiday weekend no less, so I guess I should be happy with that. I'm just not someone who's looking for an 'easy A'. It's kind of sad, because many of the students that come here are working for schools or the YMCA, and they're supposedly the ones trained to handle your children in emergency situations.

Went to the school to file a complaint against a employee for texting me to "grow up" because i…read morehung up on him since i was at work. Arrived at the school and before i could put a name to the face he actually greeted me and was cool but once i stated my name and told him it was me you were texting that he was super unprofessional and he should not talk to people/future students that way if i answer fine if not im busy and BUDDY WAS READY TO FIGHT. I said i need to talk to a higher up to file a complaint and he said he was the highest in the building and that we can talk. As we are conversating he became more agitated and started stepping up to me and telling me to be a "man" and then guided me to a empty classroom to talk behind closed doors. I said ABSOLUTELY NOT with the way he has been aggressive and essentially baiting me into an altercation. I stated i wanted a 3rd party there due to the tense situation he was creating. He then guided me to the welding area and pulled the welding teacher aside infront of students and started again saying be a man and say what you have to say and again i said i need someone thats in a high position i need to do some type of formal complaint and know its been acknowledged. Whole time the man was swaying back and forth belittling me and just asking for a fight which was not my intentions at all. The welding teacher was completely clueless and wasnt understanding what was even going on. At that point i just asked who can hell me file a complaing because this guy is extremely upset and wanting a altercation and i was directed to an office. In thay office a nice lady helped me and immediately stood up when she heard what i was trying to explain. Whole time the man was there being aggressive and still approaching me trying to coax me into doing something. The lady noticed that and quickly got me the Director of Operations even tho the man lied and said hes the highest in the building. As i was waiting the man and i were going back and forth and bickering and ultimately just displays his unprofessionalism and lack of control. He denied it was him that texted me even though he answered when i called the number with the unprofessional text message, he lied saying i came in making noise when he greeted me and i simply asked if he was who i think he is, he lied saying i went to the welding area disturbing them when he guided me there. All that for a simple text he should not have sent but he thought it was okay to do that. Never did i go with intentions for an altercation. I felt if he felt like he can just send a text like that as an employee to a possible student he clearly doesnt respect people as he should especially being in the front greeting people onna daily. I was disrespected and be littled being called less than a man and out of my name but none of it bothered me as i am confident in myself as a man, father and veteran. Moral of the story if you lose your temper as a employee and attempt to coax someone into fighting in your workplace behind closed doors theres no space for you in that establishment at all. I spoke to the director and followed the instructions he gave me to move forward and i have also submitted a complaint with BPPE. I have never been put in this situation before so i will file with whoever and wherever because this was unnecessary and someone could have been hurt or arrested.
