I am very impressed with this school. They work hard to make sure their students are trained to industry standard. I would recommend this school to anyone looking to be in health care.

It's a good chance to study a short program, specially if you're a newcomer and your English skills are just not enough to study any career at University!! I'm from Ecuador 🇪🇨 and I just came here one year ago, so it's a good start when you really want to study but the lenguage is one of the biggest issues!!

I graduated from the MLA program last year and would like to highly recommend ABES to anyone looking to further their education. My impressions of ABES from when I inquired about the program until the day I finished never changed. The staff and environment remained professional, supportive and encouraging. ABES staff members treat all students fairly and with respect. The staff are very dedicated in seeing their students succeed.

I found that the expectations set out for students were very clear and realistic from the beginning. These expectations were high in order to prepare us for the workforce. Not only were the instructors very knowledgeable, the extensive hands on experience we received at ABES was key to my success in practicum and employment after graduation.
Not only were ABES staff very helpful throughout my time at the school, they continued to assist my classmates and I in the job search once we were done. I am happy to say that I received employment with CLS when I graduated and have been working with them ever since.

Thanks ABES!

If you are looking for a school that cares about people GO TO ABES! They set you up for success and give you all the tools you need to get a job. I just graduated from the Health Care Aide program and I was hired before I was finished. The teachers are so knowledgeable and are passionate about patient care. They lead by example. My clinical instructor was always found with a hands on approach to our learning. It was amazing to watch her interact with residents, she had such and grace and such kind approach. To me there is no better way to learn then to be mentored and taught by this example. ABES give you so many extra certificates that help you get hired. This program was worth every penny and have forever changed my life. Thank you to my ABES family!

Go anywhere but this school! The teachers and staff here are constantly making promises to their future students that are never kept. They promise you these things in order for you to enroll and invest all your money into them, when later you're just left disappointed and you're unable to get a refund. This school favors white women, older people and those with children over any young youth or immigrants looking to get their careers started. Any students under the age of 30 are automatically treated with disrespect and looked down on and assumed to be immature children when all they're trying to do is get an education and better themselves. The clinical locations not at reasonable distance and they do not care to help accommodate you so that you can make it there on time especially if you do not have your own method of transportation. The teachers here are awful at communication and are very judgmental towards you as a student. This school is extremely unaccommodating and more times than not students are set up for failure. Teachers are supposed to help their students and want them to be successful, this school does the opposite then makes them feel stuck. If you were to leave the program you'll be losing over 8000 and get nothing out of it. I would highly recommend going elsewhere to get your education, if you want to be treated fairly and as an adult this is not the place for you. If you want to be treated with respect and be accommodated properly, this is definitely not the school or you.

Teachers are amazing, Don't except any help to find a job. I feel like I not only wasted my money but my time. I have been looking for over a year and unfortunately have had to return to my old field of work. When I start my LPN courses, I will make sure I never make the same mistake twice. I worked so hard and came out with a 96% final on my overall. I feel absolutely lost. I should have listened to a few friends before applying here

Decided to go back to school & sadly the wrong school... Life got into the way & had to drop out. Now I'm stuck with $9000 student loan when I only attended 25% of the course... But of course it's a private school so they make you sign a contract saying if u complete 25% therefor you owe 80% of student loan... Are you fricken serious. I knew this school was too good to be true i should have just went to Sait like everyone else told me to do. Now I gotta pay $9000 when tuition is only $10000 & I have not certificate to show for. I've been trying to get in touch with the owner for the past 3 weeks &I no reply because he don't wanna deal with me, sad truth but.. TRUTH. Worst school & experience! Please don't attend this school. I was in the MLA program & the course is now done but still in touch with classmates, since the course has been done only 1 student has been employed the rest is angry & furious. Also big problem at ABES is that some instructors & some staff were favoring same kind students, & we all knew it was happened but matter was not resolved. I know people will read reviews before doing something & please do not make the same mistake as I did, whatever course you wanna take another school will offer it & they will guarantee you employment. If you want more information on my experience please feel free to email me & I will share my story.
In conclusion thank you ABES College for putting an unemployed, soon to be mother in debt that's exactly what I need when bringing life to this world.
