    They ONLY aim at your pocket/wallet, otherwise they do NOT care about ANYTHING. Do NOT waste your money attending NU for any schooling.

    This is for the Autobody Repair and Welding night courses only…read more The autobody repair with McTaggert was great. Structured classes. Takes you from banging out dents to welding holes and body filler. No paint in this class. If you are looking for job training then I wouldn't recommend the evening class as you wont learn/practice enough to become job proficient. I would assume his day class would get you there though. He is thorough and supportive. If you are like me who wants to learn for a personal project it is perfect. The welding course is good if you have had a bit of welding experience. It is very self directed and you only get feedback if you ask. The supply of equipment and materials makes it worth the fee alone. If you are willing to do a bit of out of class studying (youtube/welding books/forums) and apply it in class you will benefit immensely from this class. I spent all 4 months at the tig bench and sometimes prepped materials at home (and welded too-I bought a tig shortly after class started because I knew I liked it once I tried)so I can better use my time. After 4 months most people asked if I welded for a living.

    My review is long overdue, I graduated the IT support…read morespecialist role back in 2022. i was part of the first IT class the school had it was brand new when I was there not sure how.It is now, but when I was there the experience was a joke and I didn't realize it was until I actually started working as a Tech. Learned pretty quickly, I was completely unprepared for real world IT. I knew the basics when it came to networking, Gpu,cpu,mobo,ssd you know all the components you would expect to learn about But the thing is, I barely knew anything Because they really taught us anything. Just enough to take our money The rest of the coursework was solely based off the comptia book and a few spreadsheets they gave to us but that was it ! , I can't speak for how it is now ? But if you are the class of 2022 or 2023 ? Goodluck you were scammed lol ! fortunately I managed to make it work and started from the bottom worked myself to higher positions along the way I'm now a Production Tech ( industrial ) no thanks to Cet I had to make it happen that school is not going to help you, you would be better off buying the comp T book online. Special shout out to Renaldo ! He was the first I.T teacher I had And was actually very knowledgeable, As far as the field goes unfortunately it did not last long and he was let go for reasons Not explained ? My second teacher was an idiot I doubt he could even build tbh, Just took our own money and ran As far as I understand it only a couple of us In my class actually stuck with the field the rest went and looked for other careers. It's sad, but I honestly can't blame them For the lack of real education, we had at the school. Do not go here For I.T !!!!! You can learn online for as little as $300 ! You can even just learn off youtube tbh At least the basics

There were two young males standing at the front desk and the young receptionist was LOVELY! Very welcoming and answered questions we didn't even know to ask. She gave us directions to the right campus and we were on our way. Once we got to the auto mechanics building, the instructors and students were friendly and helpful. They spent about 45 min with us and showed us around. Its clear they know what they are doing, with hands on experience and appear to be connected to the area for future jobs after the program!

The only shared equipment was the grinders, and there were 6 for our class of 10. There are competitor classes in the area that are cheaper, but I was very happy with my experience here. Parking is easy because there's a dedicated lot. It's a huge makerspace, so there was an open mic night, a photography session, and welding all happening in other places around the warehouse. What a cool environment! Khaled was a very energetic, kind, and supportive instructor. I'm honestly not that pleased with the quality of my work and would love to try again now that I have more experience. I'd come back for an intermediate class, but their website doesn't show any.

Area was clean and spacious and we had 4-5 hrs of safety talk, demos, and making our own knife from a piece of steel. The instructor was great and if we needed help he'll provide it and overall had a good time. They did provide water but if you want to you can bring your own beverages and a snack since it's from 10am to 2pm. Had a great time and hope to come back for more classes!

I called them the next morning letting them know I got a blood clog in my Brian but than a week later I went back to the hospital so they can MRN for my Brian and everything came out clear and the next week I went back to school they told me I got no internship but than agin I went back the second time once I came back for the second year and introduced myself with class 32 and and we were going into internship agin and they still gave me no internship it was such a waste of time and a lot of bullshit there organization no help from staff only those that help are from HR counseling but besides that that's the only person I really show respect the rest was awful and don't recommend it to nobody. It was the worst experience of my life that it is a waste of time that they should take the program off. when you ask for help for staff, they always tell you to go ask one of your classmates when they're always telling you when you need help or support come to one of us, but they're always sending you to one of your classmates instead and they don't wanna do nothing

They often respond very slowly and have a very usual attitude towards students. They probably think people come to study and ask for help from them.

    Despite being Filipino, I never was taught Tagalog growing up. I recently was inspired to learn…read moreTagalog, and I was super pleased to learn there was a place nearby that teaches it! I wanted to better connect with the language associated with my heritage, so I decided to invest the time and money to learn Tagalog. I took the Level 1 hybrid course with Rhya in early summer 2026. Overall, it provided a great foundation for introductory grammar and vocab for Tagalog. By the end of the first course, you quickly become comfortable being able to ask simple questions (like where are you from? what's your name?), answering with affirmative/negation statements, and even being able to ask "how much/how many" with Tagalog numbers right off the bat. The class structure felt perfect, with the small class sizes. The course was very interactive, as we were constantly engaging and practicing the language throughout each course. And of course, it provided a safe space to make mistakes and grow with the language. If we made a mistake, Rhya would walk us through our mistake to help understand where it was and why the correct answer was provided. The class structure was also perfect for my work schedule. There were times I had to travel for work and miss a lecture. Because I was signed up for the hybrid course, I was provided class recordings after each session, allowing me to catch up and not feel left behind. The sessions are definitely catered to working adults, with all courses being offered in the evenings. Each session was 90 mins long each week for 7 weeks. I learned a lot from Level 1, and I'm excited to continue on to Level 2!

The instructor that I had, Keiko is great. She is very patient and always willing to help. (The courses can be fast though depending the language and the books being used). The other people there are always very polite and helpful as well. The facility, while basic, is clean and conducive to learning. They seem to use a mix of media (e.g. slides, Quizlet, etc. which is good). FYI - it is near SJC - San Jose Int'l airport and the jets taking off can be somewhat loud at times.
