To take standard first aid and CPR C I paid around $130 which is 30 bucks cheaper than what I saw on st. John's ambulance. Signing up for a class is super easy. You search the type of class you want and pick the location and date from what they have available. My class was supposed to be two days, but out of the 5 people that showed up only 2 of us were doing standard. So the teacher asked if we would be willing to stay late and finish it all up in one day. I mean of course! It was great to get it over and saved my Sunday. The teacher, Rita, was funny so learning the material was enjoyable! I definitely felt prepared for the test at the end. Definitely recommend if your looking to take a first aid class for the first time or update your first aid skills.

There are always give and takes in opening a business but as of spring 2019, the staff is sufficient in quantity and training, the number of students is reasonable without overloading the available teachers. They are flexible with timing changes and vacation requests. It is only open for Mon, Wed, Fri with Friday being the most empty if you want your child to have more teacher time. I have grade 9 and grade 2 boys who attend the reading program. For the grade 2, with only 6 months of time in Canada and only 5 months at Kumon (and elementary), he can read simple novels as fast as his Japanese. The highschooler has progressed from lack of confidence in ELL1 to challenging himself to get out of ELL by next year. I believe she cares quite deeply about the education of each student, and in proxy that is how she chooses and leads her staff.

My daughter has been taking music lessons here for 4 years and it's been consistently of high…read morequality. It's been great to see the improvement over the years. The instructors and the staff are all very professional and experienced. Our daughter's teacher is a good fit. The class structure is very rigid. Do not expect any credits if you need to skip a week. On the flip side, the instructors are allowed to cancel with short notice for their own personal reasons. Our daughter's teacher has musical commitments a few times each year and this she misses out on lessons 4 or 5 times a year. The actual spaces can be hit and miss. Our daughter is in a small room in the basement, with very poor acoustic control, immediately adjacent the early learning room where very young kids clang and bang loudly on instruments including pianos and other loud instruments. Not very condusive to a quality private lesson environment for our child. In general we are happy.

I have taken three courses here (two spinning classes and a weaving class, as well as a short felting workshop) and have loved them all. The instructors are so knowledgeable and experienced that even in a beginner class you come out of it feeling like you can take on any project. If you are interested in the arts, this place will surely have something for you. And one of the best things about them, other than how incredibly affordable the classes are, is that they offer most of their programs in the evenings as well as during the day so those who work or go to school can still go.

So I actually had a really great experience at Hilltop. I feel like with most education .. you get…read morewhat you pay for. Attending Hilltop was like attending university instead of a quick college course. There is no way I would have been able to learn on my own what I learned with the excellent instructors in class. During my time there instructors offered to give extra help and there was absolutely no charge for that. There were some old alumni and some current students there were offering tutoring at a price.. but that sort od thing is done everywhere! And I paid for my tuition myself, with a payment plan. Nobody pressured me into taking any kind of student loan, and I know for a fact that at least 50% of the students in my graduating class also paid for their own education. I found the education to be totally worth the price and I think that a lot of people would actually agree with me as many of my friends that graduated with me are successful trainers or group fitness instructors. So clearly my experience is the complete opposite of the girl above... I had a great time there and felt that I learned a lot. And I know that a lot of the students in my class, the previous classes and the students that started after me all feel the same way because we all stay in touch! Awesome School! It's the only way to go if you want real knowledge of the training industry. After the Personal Training Diploma Program ... if you are looking for more eduction... go for a kinesiology degree!

Have you ever wondered what it is like to be excited to be going to school every day? That's what…read moreit was like for me at Hilltop Academy! I gained so much knowledge from one of the most knowledgeable and gifted teachers, Donna, I have ever encountered - very passionate and with years of experience in the fitness industry. The instructors addressed any questions that I had. The course is technology-forward so we were encouraged to do practice quizzes using different methods not only limited to handouts but also different apps, websites, games and hands-on. As a visual-kinesthetic learner I need different learning tools beside books to make things more clear. It was amazing how instructors understood my learning style and supported me whenever I needed extra help. Best part was not only did I surrounded myself with like-mind people but I also gained great knowledge in the classroom, the gym and outside - in gorgeous Westminster Pier Park when the weather was nice. We learned invaluable information about the industry from guest speakers who also happened to be hiring manager and potential employers for many of us in the class. Moreover we enjoyed many field trips relevant to the material covered like to Flaman Fitness and Save-on-Foods for nutrition talk with Registered Dietician. I would highly recommend this course to others! Go Hilltop!

They do whatever they can to milk money from students (especially from the international ones) and do not deliver good quality courses and SERVICES. I attended the North American Business Applied and do not recommend it. There are similar courses out there for a much better price, and most of the time, the instructors will be the same - btw, one of the few things that I liked about CapilanoU. Do not expect to have much assistance from their staff. They don't keep their word at all! I confess that I got a lot disappointed, maybe because I was expecting too much from this college - considering the huge amount of $ and time invested. if I could turn back time, I'd have chosen another university for sure!

I've attended Cap U twice in my life; One when it was Capilano College under the film studies and a…read morefew years later (recently) under the culinary program. My primary review is for the film program. I came here based on the reputation at the time of the course being better than some in the city (you know who you are). For what you paid and what the course had to offer seemed weak. The course was divided into sectionals: Lighting and camera, script writing, editing, AC, history of film, and business of film. Some teachers in the course had experience in the industry that were relevant and had a lot to offer while others were out dated. Please note that my experience compared to the current course may have changed as well as the teachers, however, I know that most of these are still in existence 'cause I have some of my friends nieces currently enrolled. Through conversation with them I feel that situations have not changed. Of course names will not be mentioned as that is irrelevant to the review. Editing: Bi-polar teacher that was supportive one moment and screaming at your the next for no reason. Not enough computers to go around to encourage or allow students to work on projects. History of film: You watch movies all day, something that I can do on my own for free on Netflix. Teacher was sexiest. Script Supervising: One of the most valued courses for me. I have an eye for mistakes and love the technical side of things in regards to continuity. Aside from a PA on major productions, for independent movies I did a lot of script supervising. Teacher was warm, knowledgeable and she made things make sense. Camera & Lighting: Learned some basics, however, with new lenses, editing and lighting this soon became an outdated course. The basics still hold value today. Business of Film: Teacher had an awesome sense of dark sarcasm and humor, we got along great. After learning about the business, financial numbers seen very interesting to you. I found that the course had way too many fresh out of high school kids who either didn't know what they wanted, thought they could be the next Lucas, still had some high school tendencies. I was a bit older than them and established myself a bit more to mature and grow before finding my way. There weren't enough people that were my age or slightly adult who took the course as seriously as they should. This partially ruined my learning experience. I was 4 years older than most of the students and still too young for the few adults. Way too much drama and high school attitude that most of my classmates carried through in their adult life. Because of this I didn't get a lot out of this during the projects as I felt were owed to me. This is a flaw with the admissions portion as mentioned before, not the students themselves. As mentioned, even if you have a demo tape. If you had the money or a scholarship, you were in. No real filtering of students who would actually elevate or make the course. The course was overly priced. Parking is horrible, take the bus. Parking is horrible, take the bus.
