"Don't send your kid(s), and don't go to this school. The administration is lazy as hell. Even if you complete your hours and pay the tuition, you will never see your certificates. I had to call the school board because of their laziness. They're so unorganized, too. I brought my paperwork (that stated that I was done with my course and was ready move on to the next one) to the office, and when I asked them weeks later, why I was still stuck in the previous course, they told me they "didn't have" the paperwork, so I had to fill out everything all over again. If you want to learn a trade, take up an apprenticeship or no-experience job or find a different trade school."

"WORST DAMN SCHOOL IN AREA. All the staff is LAZY. NO ONE ANSWERS THE PHONE. It is unbelievable how UNPROFESSIONAL ALL the staff is. RUDENESS IS OFF THE CHARTS if try to make them work. I been trying to withdrawal for days and NO ANSWER FROM ANYONE The new dean Won't Even Return calls... And the MONEY THEY TRY TO SQUEEZE FROM YOU, $290 for uniforms alone. They don't do vouchers for school books either. If you have another option I would take it"

"School staff is very untruthful and unprofessional. They do not care for their students, and just want to take more money out of you without actually teaching anything or helping. Truly a waste of time."

"Administration is not helpful when it comes to the students and some of the staff. Made us extend our year to graduate and actually not finish the program because some teachers and staff are slow or don’t care enough to help out with certain situations that holds our academic process. When it comes to FAFSA it’s all a scam from this school, they are just robbing our money while teaching us absolutely nothing and not helping any of us out.They make rules on their behalf to take away FAFSA to students and purposely make them pay another year or semester when it’s their fault.I had high expectations for this school but please don’t waste your time coming over here if you want to be in debt and not get your program done on the time that you’re suppose to finish, and deal with untruthful and unprofessional staff."

"I Attended Ridge technical 1979 to 1981 truck and bus diesel mechanics, fire safety, LP gas training, air conditioning and heating and some other shorter courses. Found them to be a great start/foundation to our small business started nearly 40 years ago. Would highly recommend this school to anyone that wants to make a difference in their livelihood. My son and I have been working together for nearly 10 years now and I have shared what I learned through these courses. Thank you Ridge technical for a lifetime of Success in our family business."
