[quote=”SpawnedX” post=32248]I would like to hear your thoughts on UTI. I personally think it is a complete waste of time and suckers people in. I also think they prey off people who are not cut out for this industry, by making them think anything you learn in a school can make you a master technician.
I have been trying to convince someone away from this path and into a local school, but they don’t seem to believe me when I tell him the things I witness with UTI graduates,[/quote]
I couldn’t agree with you much more. UTI is a school that promises alot and well it’s not really meant for everyone. I attended UTI there were alot of immature people there and well it was kind of like high school all over again. As far as the core program of the school not much you can benefit if you go in knowing most of how to’s more paperwork to fill out and they go too much into detail on part etc. as far as their Diesel Program it’s a fair program you’ll get basic knowledge. The best program was Ford Fact alot of electrical and diag . . worth the 7k. well that was the pros and cons worst one of all their promise to get you a job upon graduation ya they really don’t have connections with dealerships or independent shops even if you took their manufacture programs it’s just more money dumped into the company.
PLEASE BE ADVISED 33K IS NOT WORTH SPENDING ON UTI PLEASE CONSIDER A DIFFERENT VOCATIONAL SCHOOL. JUST BECAUSE YOU ATTEND UTI WILL NOT MAKE YOU A PROFESSIONAL TECHNICIAN DEALERSHIPS WONT SEE YOU ANY DIFFERENT TO THE LOT ATTENDANTS.
P.S. THE TOOLS THAT YOU GET AS A GIFT, YEA YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR THEM IN THE TUITION
