Advance Nursing Training

"I traveled from Houston, TX to pin my cousin for the LPN pinning ceremony. I was so honored and excited to be a part of her special moment. Im a nurse practitioner living and working in Houston. Nursing students in this program were told to invite nurses that they know to pin them for the ceremony. I made sure I was able to take off to be there. Unfortunately the owner and her team didn’t get enough nursing pins and I actually never got to pin her. That’s the whole reason for my trip. We were in the front of the ceremony looking clueless. Every student got a pin except my cousin. One of the staff members was all on the floor looking for a pin. I was upset that this had happened, Quite frankly embarrassed. If you had a set number of students to graduate how come you didn’t have enough pins plus extra just in case for backup? I feel like my cousin’s and I moment was stolen from us and we can’t get it back. I understand mistakes happen, but when My cousin’s husband said the owner also had a smile on her face simultaneously while the staff member was looking for her pin that made me think this was done maliciously! Now that type of behavior from the owner was unprofessional and unethical. This doesn’t show leadership to future nurses. Do better. So if you’re looking at this school to “advance” your nursing career pray that’s this is where you need to be and hope that when it’s your time to get your nursing pin, that the owner has enough and you won’t be standing up there embarrassed because she didn’t take the time out to make sure she had enough pins."

"I was an instructor at this facility. I was hired to teach a CNA course. Upon hire I was asked how soon could I work, and of course I said I was available asap. I interviewed Friday and started Monday morning for the first AM CNA class. I worked about 2 days with the AM students, and was immediately switched to teach the PM students. The PM students graduated two months ago, and I wasn’t provided information about the next starting class, nor was I made aware of I’d still had a job moving forward. In fact, when asked when would the next class be starting, I was told “I haven’t thought that far into that yet.” I was left unsure about employment status. Upon hire, I was never provided a new hires packet, no information on what day is payday, given access to the teachers textbook, provided a work email address, or access to the grading website to input my grades. Mind you, I have been teaching CNAs and other courses in healthcare since 2009. When I inquired about these items I was assured I’d receive new employee packet/hire information upon my arrival to work, but I NEVER received it. The owner likes to say she emailed me things, but never did I received anything! I have great communication skills, and I keep up with an extensive paper trail, and I can show proof that I’ve never received anything!!! On today, I sent another email asking for check stubs, and I was told by the owner I should’ve received an email for retrieval of my check stubs upon hire, and again I never received anything. I have never worked for a company that was so unprofessional, unethical, and I must say I regret ever applying. Teaching is my passion, but after going through this experience, I am convinced that not everyone is as passionate as I am. If there’s anyone who wishes to attend schools such as this, please do your homework before applying."

"This school have been a blessing to me from the day I step my foot in the doors at this school Ms.Melanie make everyone feel so welcome. During my time at Advanced Nursing Training I studied CNA which I landed a job before I even finished the program I enjoyed this school so much that I went back and studied Phlebotomy where I became a Certified Phlebotomist and once again landed a job , I recommend this school to anyone that is ready for a career change or just looking to further your education."
