If you want to take CPR/FA and HIV/AIDS classes, and other "little" certifications (less than 40 hours), this is a good and cheaper alternative, but I would not recommend taking one of their larger classes like their Nursing program or Pharmacy Tech program. The staff and teachers are nothing but nice and knowledgeable, but that's their only saving grace. This school caters to people looking to get a new start at a good price. They offer in-house loans for tuition (for classes more than $800 I think) since you cannot put this school on the FAFSA, so you gotta get the money on your own. I received an in-house loan and the process was very straightforward and easy. You gotta pay for your own background check and drug test, get caught up on your vaccines, and get a physical. All of that will cost you between $200-$250 and it's all mandatory for a few of their classes. Though their vision is very clear that they want to help people "get on the right track" their overall system is very shady and places a lot of pressure on its students to succeed or else they will be right back where they started at ground zero. First off, this is NOT an accredited school. If you find their Course Catalog on their website and flip a few pages, they admit that they are not accredited. I found this out a little too late since I found their website difficult to navigate when I first found it, but it's there. This school was made to get students to take national exams and certifications. They will also tell you that you have to take and PASS national certification exams in order to complete their classes and find work. If you fail those national exams, they will not give you a certificate of completion from your class/program and you will have to wait to retake the exam and hope you pass the second time to finally be done. No matter how good you do in the actual class, you will NOT be given a certificate of completion or any resources on how to become registered with the state until you pass those exams. It's completely unnecessary to take some of these national exams to work in Florida, and Express will basically force you to take them and then keep you from graduating until you pass them. Example: In the state of Florida, you don't need to be nationally certified to work as a Pharmacy Technician. Sure, you'll earn a few extra dollars on your salary, but it is not required to find work. You just have to enroll in an accredited class and complete 80 externship hours and then pay a fee to register with the sate, and then you're done and can seek work anywhere in Florida. Through Express, you must complete the class, complete 120 externship hours (their contract is with CVS), PASS the national certification exam, and then they will grant you your certificate and then you pay your fee to register with the state so you can find work. So, you gotta work an extra 40 hours for free, and if you fail the exam then you will be denied your certificate of completion (and you will still have to pay those loans!) even though you completed the Florida requirements of finishing a class and earning over 80 hours from your externship. I talked to someone that recently finished their tech program this year, and he said that none of the students had externships lined up - even after over a MONTH of being done with the class - because their coordinator was very slow. So, they have to wait until their externships are lined up, then do those 120 hours, and then take the test before they can even think about applying for jobs. If you work full-time and you're trying to fit in 10-15 hours a week for the externship, you're looking at another 3-4 months. So some of those people may not even "finish" the class until the summer - almost a year later - assuming they pass the first time. Pay the extra $1000 and take this class at UF and (if you're disciplined) take it online. You can finish this program within 2 months if you do multiple modules a day, you'll have the peace of mind knowing that UF will set up externships for you and will send you regular emails on available jobs in the area after you finish the program (Express does not), and you could have jobs lined up for you before you even finish your externship since they contact people for you to make sure you get a job ASAP. If I could have done it all over again, I would have paid the extra money so I wouldn't have had to put up with all of the pressure and stress this institution placed on me. I am embarrassed to say that I attended this school (which is a shame since the teachers and staff are SO nice) and I have yet to recommend a single person here for classes beyond CPR/FA certification. This school is an absolute scam.

The surgical tech program here only gives you the AST certification...not an AS degree or the national board certification that most hospitals and surgical centers look at for their new hires. Besides that, my instructor MELISSA RODRIGUEZ was extremely unprofessional, lazy, and more childish than most of the students attending the program. She would gossip about all of the students and if you did not try to be best friends with her and kiss her butt every second of the day, she would turn incredibly rude and give you no guidance whatsoever. There were so many things that I needed to learn that she never showed the class. A month before my lab final she excluded me from practicing in the OR with her simply because she had negative, personal feelings towards me. I witnessed her enabling cheating from my other classmates and the list of unprofessionalism just goes on and on... Unfortunately, the director of the program, TIMOTHY LAMB seems to protect her unprofessional behaviors instead of doing the right thing by the students and hiring a much better, and qualified instructor. The social environment of the program, and especially my own classroom became so toxic to me that I made the decision to withdraw halfway through this program in order to protect my mental health. If OCPS knows what's good for them and the success of the attending students, they would do a complete overhaul of the surgical technology department. I am currently enrolled to start a much better program at another school in the near future. I can't say I didn't receive SOME type of learning experience from my time there! Now, onto better and more positive experiences.
