As an early polling spot on a weekday, this place had a smooth voting process. We came in the early…read moreafternoon, and parking was ample since there weren't very many people. We stood in line outside for what felt like only 10 minutes, and then were taken inside. They had a sign outside to silence your phone before you entered. Mask coverings and social distancing of 6 ft were required. Once inside, they took your drivers license and scanned it into their system. Then, they gave you a voting card and a disposable stylus with a rubber end to it. You're then directed to an automated voting machine to insert your voting card in, and then used your stylus to vote. Once you're done, you took your filled out voting card and scanned it into their final voting machine to tally your vote in, and you're done. The voting process itself felt like it took only a total of 15 minutes to complete. So, if you're planning to vote early in Ford Bend County, this spot is very efficient on a weekday.

Media Tech grads make great employees! I've actually hired the same graduate for two totally different jobs, and he has constantly excelled at both. These people really know their stuff.

The students are not learning anything, and the staff, especially the "student services director" could not care any less. You pay 20 plus grand for a certificate and the job placement and internships are non existant. Ask them about their completion rate and they will tell you that information can not be shared. Well why not? I found out that it's about 20%. Definitely not worth it. Save your money and go to HCC. If you want to pay more to a reputable institution, go to the Arts Institute, but stay away from this trap.

I signed up for an EKG technician course during this pandemic to hopefully get my foot in the door…read moreat a better job. From the beginning I should've known that the school is not a reputable school. They are worried about taking your money right away before giving you a curriculum or even a tour of the school. The classroom I was personally in fits 3 people and the equipment used to taught the course was all non functional. The first day was a mandatory CPR course (which i get why you need in the medical field) but all it was was showing us a video that asked us to follow the video with a dummy that we did not have. When Dr. Raymond came back in the room he taught the most basic cpr instructions on a a gross looking dummy for about 10 minutes. The classrooms were full of old unusable equipment and photos of students from the early 2000's. I learned everything straight from the book/the internet on my own. Dr. Raymond's lectures are about 10 minutes long (if you're lucky) where he says nonsensical things or reads straight from the book. I asked him questions countless times and was left more confused than before as it was like he didn't know what he was talking about. He accidentally left me a voicemail talking trash about his students with the other teacher(his wife) and how students all think they know everything. At the end of my course I took my test in person and in writing(not electronically) and did not hear back anything about my results. I finally called and was answered by a rude receptionist saying she was sure she sent me the link to my certificate. Dr. Raymond did not offer me job placement even though I made sure to ask when I signed up if that's something they did. His wife assured me that they did. Instead I got a call from him offering to pay me $9 an hour to teach his EKG course for 2 hours a day, 2 days a week. (So a whopping $36 a week to teach others things I barely learned on my own) TLDR: do not go here if you want a real education. If you want to pay to go sit in a gross outdated classroom, read straight from a book everyday, and listen to the Doctor take personal phone calls while sitting in class with you trying to read about what he's about to "lecture" you on then this is the place! Also beware and ask about ALL THE FEES. As the test is not included, nor is CPR.

The instructor Allistor, was a wonderful teacher, and answered all of our questions. He was extremely patient and thoroughly identified different methods to locate veins. He also explained how to poke and draw blood using different needle gauges. Allistor was definitely a team leader and I genuinely enjoyed this course.. I was encouraged to read both the Phlebotomy Third Edition book and also the Phlebotomy Quick Study flyer. Highly Recommend taking this program!

If you are considering being a standard cleaning only patient, my experience says beware…read more They have you come in for XRays and then tell you a dental hygenist will call to set up an appointment. I was required to get an approval from my doctor for them to clean my teeth and they faxed a form to my doctor. The problem occured when I followed up (Pima didnt bother to contact me) with my doctor and said they received and returned. I called Pima and was told the form they received was not signed by my doctor. They said they would send another. I called my doctor who said they did not undertand how Pima could say doctor didn't sign. They received the form again, but Pima fax number was not on form. They attempted to contact Pima repeatedly, but did not receive a call back. I called Pima several times myself and did not receive a call back. So, all I can say is Buyer Beware when it comes to being a patient with Pima Dental Program in Houston, TX.

Lied about the US-based instructor. The instructor was in India who declined to provide his credentials when I asked after first session at which he was late and spent a good amount of time talking about not related stuff such as how smart I am. 2. The instructor didn't show up for the second class. 3. The school used a program id for different class, which shows their overall ethics. 4. The director named Farid told me that I was bullying and he will call his attorney after I told him about 1 and 3.

If you go to the Literacy Advance of Houston (LAH) website, you'll be confronted with a few facts…read morethat should give you pause: * Approximately 52% of adults in Harris County are functionally illiterate in English * Texas ranks 47 out of 50 states, in terms of English literacy levels * 68% of those arrested, 75% of welfare dependents, 85% of dropouts and 72% of the unemployed are identified as functionally illiterate If you're in a self-absorbed mood, the third fact should answer the question, "Why do I care?" quite convincingly. So, who's doing anything about this? LAH is! They are a non-profit organization whose mission is "to teach adults to read, write, and communicate in English so they can achieve their full potential as parents, workers, citizens, and community members." Using strictly volunteer tutors, classes are offered for free at schools, community centers, churches, corporations, and small businesses throughout the Greater Houston area. LAH has been strongly endorsed by a number of local literacy advocates whose names you've heard (some of them are volunteer tutors too): * Author and Houston's First Lady, Andrea White * Former Astro pitcher, announcer and manager, Larry Dierker * Former Oiler quarterback and General Manager of the Houston Dynamo, Oliver Luck * Former Head Coach of the Houston Comets, Van Chancellor * and many more... There are few local charities that are more deserving of some dollars you can leverage into a tax write-off or perhaps even some of your time as a tutor. In addition to the office in Galleria area, they also have an office near Clearlake. Full disclosure: I'm currently not involved with Literacy Advance of Houston in any way but I am a personal friend of its Executive Director and know a member of the Executive Board.
