If you think you are smart enough to go to nursing school then why weren't you smart enough to just get your diploma or GED from your local city resources offering those classes instead of going online to a school that clearly states up front they are not accredited and it is common knowledge that no one accepts certificates or diplomas that are not from an accredited school. This information was in the contract you signed so why are you blaming the school?

Why didn't you research first? That's what brought me to this actual website, I actually researched the school first before making any decisions so again, why are you blaming the school for your own ignorance?

And what's up with the grammer and spelling structure? From a person already in nursing school, you need to pay attention to things more closely from now on.

Stratford Career Institute - Course Review from Winnipeg, Manitoba

Back in 2003-05 I sent away for an info packet on the pc repair course.I received the packet promptly,read it over and it seemed to me the material was very basic ie.what the names/parts of a pc were, what each component did,how to remove the parts etc.Nothing more advanced like diagnostics,software problems and solutions et.As I've said,very basic.Now the kicker was This course was 1795$ plus taxes and other fees! When I didn't respond back,a week later I received a letter saying I was offered a discount down to 1495$.Subsequently more letters followed with course discounts of 1195$ all the way down to 795$ !!!

Review in Education category from Port Saint Lucie, Florida

I do not have any business with this institution,but reading the negative feedback makes me think twice about exchanging my hard earned cash for a piece of worthless paper. Obviously, they are providing a service,but if the diploma means nothing to an employer . . you can't use it to obtain a job, it's not worth pursuing; I would suggest that the school obtain appropriate accreditation before selling it's services.

Even tho I stop taking the class once I found out their not a accredited school I still have to pay cause its now on my credit 700 for something that I can't use at all this should be illegal and everyone should receive refunds

How exactly do you classify this as a scam? This school clearly tells you up front they are not accredited and it is common knowledge that certificates or diplomas from a non accredited school are not accepted by most colleges and employers.

Because of your ignorance and lack of research you are now blaming the school? Did you not sign a contract stating all this info? Or did you even read the contract?

Look at the other comments, this course is recommended for self enrichment only. Want a real education try going to a real school, here's an idea, try your local community colleges or if your really wanting to spend a lot of money then a trade school , either way I bet they are all accredited!

Guest

Duh! You think you might have researched the fact that they are not accredited?

Like when you signed the contract you didn't even notice that pesky little detail now you blame the school? I'm sure if they were doing something illegal you would've sued by now but thru fault of your own you bad mouth the company when YOU *** well know it was your own dumb *** mistake- try accepting responsibility and hopefully by now you've gone to a real school and achieved the education necessary to comprehend what accepting fault for your own mistakes mean.

Probably because you can't spell accept. There's more to learning than getting a diploma.

Also, a diploma does not guarantee a job. Use the knowledge you have to expand your horizons.

Take some courses from a local college. They should be easy now that you have some knowledge that you can apply.

I think all of you that are writing these reviews are crazy. And I think it's a great school I enjoy my classes. I love the staff and you have no time limit on exams. and you take as long you want to complete your courses. I would rate the staff and corse rate them a ten.

Your review might carry some weight if you used proper punctuation and spelling.

Guest

Did you also comment on how when you finish and get your certificate thaty it is useless because it is not accredited, so no one needs to waste your money and time. I know from past experience. ok for the ease and flow but when your all done your certificate means nothing

Started my Admistrative Assistant course since October and it's going well thus far. I get access to everything they promise. They did mentioned that it is not an accredited school, but more like for self improvement. I'm really finding my reading material useful so far.

It's a shame the Government lets you people Fleece society. Like you do thought I would further my education but after talking with several (Credited) schools I find out my high school Diploma I pay close to 1000$ for from this school isn't worth the paper it's printed on. I'm so very pissed, heartbroken and disgusted with this institution. Stop sending me your *** in the mail. And God will punish you for taking Advantage of innocent people like you do. I hope and pray your business goes under very soon!!! Dirtbags I welcome you to prove me wrong that your an accredited school

***! How do you not know that you can acquire your HS diploma or GED from the city you live in!

For a way smaller fee. Plus it is common knowledge no one accepts certificates or diplomas from a non accredited school program which you would have known had you researched first or simply asked questions before signing the contract. Why didn't you ask questions or at least take two minutes to Google something useful instead of blaming the school after the fact.

NO the school is not at fault here, YOU ARE! ***!

Guest

I am very disappointed, I paid over $500.00 for my high school diploma to find out later that it didn't count for ***... I can't use the diploma to go to college or anything.

Thank You I started with stratford to get my high school Diploma to better my self and to move on to a career to earn more money and if i had known that this school was a scam i would not have went through them in the first place or sent them any money. i would have went through a school that is credited and that i can use to do other schooling and that is credited. And i will be taking them to court to get my money back money dont grow on trees and i cant Afford to let them keep my money i have a baby on the way! So Thank You people for Your post and i hope they get there *** sued!!!!
