As a current student, I feel it's important to share some concerns about the way this school treats…read moreits students. Recently, we received an email stating that students are not permitted to enter classrooms before the scheduled class time so that instructors can "prepare the learning environment." However, in reality, many professors arrive exactly at the start time or even after class is supposed to begin. Meanwhile, students are expected to stand in hallways or find somewhere else to go even when we arrive early after work to study. The only alternative spaces are the library or cafeteria, both of which have very limited seating. It feels unreasonable to pay out of pocket for an education and not even be allowed to sit in an empty classroom while waiting. We then received another email about elevator use, which is understandable for accessibility reasons. However, the message stated that misuse could result in parent/guardian contact. This is a school of adults, and many of us are parents ourselves. Including language like that clearly shows how little the administration thinks of its students and reinforces the feeling that we are treated like children rather than responsible adults paying for a professional education. Another major concern is the lack of respect and support from some faculty members. For example, Professor Jayne Kier is extremely unapproachable. Students feel uncomfortable asking questions because responses are often sarcastic, dismissive, or met with long, intimidating stares. There is little guidance provided, yet students are made to feel as though they are wrong for seeking help. This creates a stressful and discouraging learning environment. Lastly, it often feels like students cannot safely voice concerns. When issues are brought up to administration, they are dismissed as complaints rather than taken seriously even though many of us are committed, adult learners who care deeply about our education and future careers. It is incredibly disappointing to be treated this way as paying adult students. We invest our time, energy, and money into this program, yet we are treated as if we are receiving a free service and should simply accept it without question. The tone and treatment are not only disrespectful, they are humiliating.

See for yourself, and remember this is a school that is preparing you to have a professional career, think critically and make wise choices In life, if this is not your goal then, this is not the school for you.

I was a bit skeptical at first since I was expecting Andrew to teach the course, but Juan did an excellent job at giving tips to conceptualize topics. Further, Juan is a good speaker with years of knowledge working in the industry, so he will answer any questions you may have with ease. They will provide you with slides that are great for reviewing before the exam. The best thing about this course is that they will focus on topics that have higher priority and will advise on which sections to spend more of your time on. From my experience, I would recommend reading the book prior to taking the exam and taking this bootcamp course as a refresher. You should not rely solely on the bootcamp to pass the course as the CISSP has a lot of info that may require more time to study. Note, I spent 3 months of regularly studying and crammed 60+ hours the week before the exam.

I just had the director of Access Careers in Hempstead, Mini, hang up in my face when I called to…read morecomplain about the conditions of the school. I've already been a CNA for years and was looking to recertify. This is probably a waste of time, it usually is for bad businesses that don't want to spend any money, just mill out people and make money. If you're going to sign up for Access Careers in Hempstead, here's a couple of things to look out for before you make the commitment and spend the money. The population of students in my class mostly worked during the day and came to school at night. If you are one of these people trying to save money to scrape together the money to attend this school they accommodate you as such, like you're poor and you're lucky to be there. You will receive such amenities as not having the lab supplies you need every time you have to go in there. Now the director Mini, turned it on the teacher, which true it would have been helpful, but, it was obvious that she had never checked in with her operation like a director/ supervisor is supposed to. That's 101 supervisor stuff. It's Mini's school. She blamed one of the only good employees she had for everything, my teacher one of them. The classrooms and bathrooms are dirty, the desks cheap. They're those metal fold up chairs for picnics with small writing surface over one of the arms. Your uniform will be a plastic shower curtain with the Access insignia. The building smells disgusting. There's no sanitary receptacles in the bathroom, but the toilets will overflow if you drop anything in there. There is a letter in all caps written to students to keep it clean with picture of a clean toilet bowl next to another toilet bowl with urine in it at flies swarming around it. Charming. The director told me she uses that bathroom also, she doesn't seem to think it's gross or smells bad. How? She proceeded to ask me why I'm just opening my mouth up about it now. Blaming me now. I wanted to finish the six week program and move on, they had my money. I'm glad I didn't speak up, it was in my best interest, the response I received today was deflective and defensive . Many things need to be fixed. I called the director to give my feedback, but, she didn't take to it well, hanging up on me. I think you have right to know that stuff now. I think you should know she is aware of the unacceptable state of her school. If she does something about it, good. She is aware though, so if you have a complaint don't let her tell you it's the first time hearing it and she's just shocked to death that no one told her. Don't ask Leani for anything, she's mad you asked. Also say goodnight to her when she says goodnight to you or she'll come back and reprimand you like a child whether you're mid chew or not. Don't ask Mini for anything either, she will not take responsibility for rigged together operation Access is. Like I said I've been a CNA, I paid 300 dollars less, and it was a great experience. My school was clean and everything. The school is the way it is because of choices. The trashes in the classrooms were always overflowing, and a lot of times it smelled and it smelled up the classroom. I used to just take it out, the garbage pails smelled so gross. Ultimately, everything was everyone else's fault except Mini's, the director. She didn't notice the classrooms were dirty. It's the cleaning crew's fault. I was there for 6 weeks, the lack of noticing how gross the school was was there way before I got there. The labs not having the materials they needed, not a lot of noticing going on until I just brought it up apparently. Today, today was the first time the dirty school will be noticed as being dirty, the bathrooms will be noticed perhaps as being absolutely disgusting today. Mini never noticed before. She blamed her cleaning crew. The teacher was asking office workers for supplies, she was unaware until today. She blamed the teacher. She blamed me for not doing all the noticing she should have been doing herself. It's her school. I've been a boss of huge projects, in charge of 40 plus people. Their success was my success. You have to take responsibility for what goes on under your supervision and do your best to make it better, not keep it status quo. I was fond of my classmates, they all worked hard and were trying to better themselves. My teacher Mrs. Herbert had been nurse for many years. I was a CNA for many years, she did her best to try and emphasize the importance of maintaining the dignity of each resident and to empower us to do our best and take care of ourselves. Honestly, I'm furious. If you can find a better school with better conditions with people who take responsibility for their short comings and make changes. Do it. There are good schools, Access Careers in Hempstead is trash. Good luck everyone, you deserve to be treated well, no matter what tax bracket you're in.
