Great hands-on, no follow up 50/50 shot
I attended back in 99-2000-ish. I went for the A+ cert, then MCSE (network engineer) training. My A+ instructor was also a recent grad, but the guy knew his stuff and we went hard every class session. He even gave us "study material that fell off a truck" to help us with test prep. I passed my A+ 1st time around and started the MCSE training right away. My instructor there was already working in the field for a HUGE company on the government side of things. My class size was 4, which eventually dwindled down to 2 (me & another guy who was already 15 years experienced in IT field). My instructor or class mate would bring in real-world problems they either had the previous week or were working at the moment and we would work them out in class. We read very little and was expected to do that on our own. While in class we were hands on all the time and i learned so much cuz i would listen, ask, try (and fail) and try again and ask and neither of them ever talked down to me for being a noob , but would always encourage me. They gave me my pass for my 1st exam which i passed, but after the course, there was no follow up and to be honest i'm not sure if job placement of any sorts was ever promised. Why would it be for a specialized course work like network engineering? Regardless, i had my own contact and got into the field within months of finishing and has been a roller coaster since. Went from network admin, to corp manager of IT, to consultant for a variety of industries (learned a lot on that job too) to eventually owning my own outsource IT firm for a few years. Sold that off and now i'm back to looking for something else to do. Saw that they were offering Cisco course a while back. i just might look into it and sign up again cuz like i said, i had a great time there. Does any know if they are accredited and if so, by who?

Adcon Technical Institute Ultrasound Technology Program Review from Pacoima, California
I attended ATI 3 years ago and i graduated. I have a 40,000 debt now & absolutely nothing to show for it. The school said I would get hands-on training but failed to do so. They gave us a copy of a test very similar to the "real" test a week prior to test so we would pass so they would get funded because if we went by their lack of their teaching we would not pass. The teacher we had at the time was straight out of school herself. I contacted the school to ask if I could take the classes again or if i could get the hands-on training as promised but I was rejected. Not one person I've contacted from the school has actually gotten a job in the field other than the one student that works for her uncle who is a doctor & he trained her. If any attorney can help me please let me know how i can get legal help with this matter. I would be satisfied if the school would help me & let me take classes from the new teacher & get the hands on training as promised. My externship site never let us even touch the probe. It's hard paying for schooling only to get nothing from it.

Ultrasound school, ATI IN NORWALK ARE RIP OFFS!
Adcon technical institute in norwalk ca, has and ultrasound program, the school promises you hospital sites, which they dont have, they also apply for student loans as transportation, housing, and apply it toward tuition There whole staff is incompetent and if you complain it is ignored. Do not attend this school they will not help you find a job. Any one out there attend this school and looking for resolution maybe a class action? Oh yeah if you get lucky to find a site they will send you to a dirty clinic with every JACHO,HIPPA violation you will imagene.

Adcon Technical Institute forged student loans
Please becareful with this school. Adcon Technical Ultrasound, In NorwalK Ca 90650.This school uses false advertisement, has no Hospital sites, Student loans are falsified applying for Food Housing, transportation, over 8,000, dollars that i have to repay i never got that money. When i tried to call the school "Andy" hung up on me. PLEASE BEAWARE! They also dont provide employement services, for your clinical hours students are forced to go to private doctor offices, were the doctors there expect ULTRASOUND STUDENTS to perform nursing duties on Patients, draw blood, vitalsigns, history charting, Any legal advice out there?

Iam about to start school on APRIL4 2011is this a wise choice or should I try a different school if so what school would be a better fit?
:( i also went to this school and regret it. i got a "great" internship site and no job.
they dont help place you either.
waster of 21k!!! dont go here.
I agree. I got completely screwed by this school in every possible way.
What a waste of 2 years of my life. Anyone know what we can do about it?
I agree. I attended the school on a grant program provided by san diego county.
I am a Military Spouse and needed a career I can move around with. I got my own clinical site through the Naval Hospital. they promised all kinds of things that they didn't follow through with. I ahve to say the only good thing about that school was the teacher I had.
She was awesome and I did learn alot. I graduated in 06 and haven't been able to find employment in my field since then. Could we file a suit?
How would we do it? I am so interested!
