- I would recommend that you set up a time to go and see the school and meet the
instructor. Ask the instructor about their working knowledge in the industry.
Where have they worked
- There is a lot of false information on websites. A website should give the course
outline, class hours, start dates, price, information about the school and how long
the school has been in business, professional knowledge of the instructor, and
basic policies of the school.
- Ask to see the course material. Does the school have a proper training manual or
do they give you sheets with a bunch of drinks on them to learn.
- What is the policy on refresher courses and what is the policy if you fail the
course.Does every class start at the same time. Some schools have new students starting
every week. Everyone is at a different level so proper flow of instruction is
impossible. They are trying to cram as many students as they can into the school
but the students lose in the long run.
- Does the instructor actually talk about how to find jobs, what to put on a resume,
give you leads about jobs or what to expect during a job interview.
- Will the school let you come in and watch a class already in session? If they
won’t then what are they worried about.
- If they don’t have a payment plan then they are probably worried about dropouts
not completing the course and not paying for the full course.
