Pros

The only pro is the students

Cons

Well everything is a con. First they don't really Hite you as a faculty member they hire you as an adjunct faculty you get full-time hours but none of the benefits on holidays you're not paid there is no insurance unless you are considered admissions office receptionist or management none of the teachers that work hard everyday get any type of benefits another thing is for the dental assisting program they are saying that these kids get certifications but actually it's a piece of paper it's not a certified dental assistant program and they charge way too much for piece of paper these girls cannot even get their Radiology certification through this program. Their equipment that they are using is very outdated for them charging $16, 000 per student they should have updated equipment for every single program. They are literally ripping every single person that walks in there off. the management has an attitude when you make suggestions to make their programs better they use you and never give you a title they dangle that you will get full-time benefits if you are the lead medical assistant teacher the lead dental assistant teacher the lead massage therapy teacher but they never give you the title and they tell every single teacher that they can be that and they only time when they try to put someone as that is when they're about to get audited. And your checks don't even say it first Institute school it says a traveling agency makes you think twice about what's really going on at that location at the schools my advice is to run far away from the school you do not want to be associated with it because even if you try to leave because of how horrible their reputation is in the dental and medical community you will never get hired after working there.
