UEI College Reviews of Certificates in Electrician

"This school looks nice and is kept neat. Materials we use for our classes are often scraps left over from a class before. The instructors are nice and easy to communicate with but at the same time the way we learn is a bit difficult because there’s little actual teaching just a lot of try it till you get it and not even really understanding why something does what it does."

"The school overall is great. I was able to communicate with the staff and instructors very good when I needed help. The instructors are always well behaved and know how to teach other students. The online is very good but they should do more than one hour."

"Very friendly place I was able to do my work in peace. I was also able to make so many friends. The teachers are very nice they always help all you gotta do is just ask .the restrooms are always clean that’s something I really appreciate because it’s real important to have clean restroom assiduously the class rooms too"

"the school is smooth the instructors are very cool. well some of them. they make it easy to learn with the help of online and in person days.the homework isnt very hard just really time consuming. but overall the school is pretty good and it works with u on ur payment"

"I feel the program could’ve done better and it could’ve been more organized. I felt lectures were not informative or fun for students to ask questions and be involved. Lab didn’t have many materials for all students. Most materials were broken or badly used."

"The instructors and staff at UEI Stone Mountain have been very helpful. I have enjoyed my time here so far and look forward to the future here. I look forward to my lab days especially because I enjoy working with my hands. My instructors take time to answer all of my questions."

"UEI is a great trade school they help you out a lot such with financial aid, get you ready for a job once you graduate, and get to meet new people and get connections. I’ll recommend this school if anyone is trying to get into a trade school and is ready"

"My overall review for this school was great everyone was friendly not just the staff but the students as well. This school allowed me to get information I learned in class and apply it to real life situations. It didn’t just give me a diploma it gave me knowledge that I can apply in the real world"

"Good place to learn experience for a 10 month Program For any career. Honestly what i do hate about this is that when you start you have to jump in with other peolle who have started the program so then its kinda confusing but usually you get used to it."

"UEI college has an amazing electrician program. They have such amazing instructors and they’re all helpful. You have lots of hands on assignment and it’s really close to the real world. Every staff member is helpful especially career service. UEI is an amazing campus and you should come and join the family."

"The staff and faculty are wonderful. They help you from start to finish with only the best of intentions to see every student start a new career. My instructor seems to be very knowledgeable, and patient. They do offer a variety of class schedules to accommodate most anyone's needs."

"I’ve been coming here for 5 months already and i have no complaints I’m ready to graduate in may and start my new career . I come 2 days out of the week and both those days are hands on and the other 2 are online days . It’s easy and goes by pretty quick"

"The education system is easy to learn. I recommend new students to Read and then practice.I also want to say that I have learned a lot in UEI I have two diplomas in HVAC and Electrician my life has changed a lot I am overvalued in the labor field .remember these tips. Discipline, practical reading and ask the instructors"

"I am a student at the Oceanside campus. I can say that my experience has been great. I am almost done with the program and have no complaints. They help me apply for Financial Aid and explained everything to me. The staff is friendly and helpful. I recommend if you are looking for a trade or short career"

""This review applies to the Electrician Technician program as currently (Apr '22) taught at the UEI Chula Vista campus: Absolutely pathetic. You have either very narrowly trained people in the art of instruction, or, people that have some actual experience in the field, and again no ability to teach, or the last option they don't know what they're trying to teach and they wouldn't know how to teach it if they did. Please do anything else before you give this outfit your education dollars. I have no idea how they ever got accredited for VA/GI bill funds. Total waste of taxpayer money. Truth.""

"This program had red flags all over it from the start and it only got worse as time passed. False promises were made by admin, I was misled and setup for financial failure and a long-term debt. They mixed in new and current students in the same modules causing confusion, The 1st instructor quit halfway through the module leaving us misled. I had a family death happen and they couldn't even make an attendance exception so I could grieve in peace..they failed me after completing all assignments and made me repeat the module which moved my graduation date by 3 months. Absolutely disgusting and I felt degraded and personally insulted. Wouldn't recommend anyone coming here."

"I attended the electrician study at UEI, my experience with UEI was horrible, this school only cares about getting your money not educating you. The instructors are horrible at instructing, they are electricians not instructors, they should learn to instruct before becoming instructors. It was a hybrid class, the instructors would miss Zoom meetings so there would be no class that day, but they still gave us credit for attending, so that they could get their money of course. Labs were extremely basic, and most of the time there was no material or the material that was available was scraps. Lab was 5 hours long but only about 2 hours of it was hands on. Most of the time you are just standing around doing nothing. This school was a waste of time and money. I feel like I've been robbed of my money, time, and education by this school. I suggest that if you are going into the electrician trade that you look for a better school."
