I was enrolled in the Network Systems Administrator Course at CDI South Campus but I had to stop going due to the school ignoring my complaints. 1) Instructor telling the students to just read the textbook. We all know that just reading the textbook is not going to give the student the answers they require. Also when someone is not understanding something...

CDI College Poor educational instruction/ waste of money

I would like to point out that CDI College are nothing but money hungry thieves because I had been having trouble with the instructor of the Network Systems Administrator Course well I was told to just read the textbooks, but we all know that people cannot just learn from textbooks alone. I have brought it to the attention of Director well he just ignored my complaints and sent me away. I was in a meeting and was told that me taking the March Disbursement for my student loan was going over there head. Well to me that was wrong of them to say that because it is me who has to pay it back not them. I am quite upset about this. then on the tuesday after the meeting when I went to school I was told that I got my transfer that i requested to the north east campus in calgary, ab BUT i had to pay them $918.00 in order to get the paper work started. Well to me its a crock of bull crap because all I was wanting to do is transfer to another campus to maybe get more out of the course than I was being taught at the South Campus. My goal with this complaint is to get a whole crew together and get this organization investigated and have them stopped from taking innocent peoples money.

CDI College Waste of time money!

This school is the biggest waste of time, the teachers don't do anything other then go on lunch and breaks ALL the time, they don't help, there was a teacher at CDI SOUTH (Calgary ab) that told a student " if you don't no how to read the book then i can't help you" they don't care about anything other then you paying them! there was another girl in my class that got really sick and had to miss a few days, and she fell behind 2 finals and two projects, and they said they were going to kick her out, if she didn't finish them in two weeks, while she was moving on the the next thing, they don't help at all the teacher is always late, cares more about her hair make and whatever else then helping us out. this school is a joke don't waste your time or money the list goes on and on! PLEASE DONT WASTE YOU'R MONEY WASTE OF TIME AND BIG JOKE!

My name is David Cao. I recently took a course in PSW and they took me out because they thought I misbehaved in a bad way; resting in the locker room, inmitating playing baseball, complaints from supervisor that the director of care from cawrthra gradens kicked me out, including the campus director.

I find it interesting because these would be the same complaints any student would make about certain professors at their schools. I've heard people say the same thing about their university prof so I don't think that is unique to this school. There will always be profs who are horrible and ones that are good. I had profs & TAs in University that couldn't speak english and some that did but you still couldnt understand a word they say. You just deal with it and study harder.

I'm very pleased with my education and had a great experience at CDI College. I took the dental assisting program in Surrey. Before I applied, I did my research and learned that the program was well known and well-respected for the success of its graduates. I also found out I could get into CDI without having to be on a waiting list.

My instructors knew their stuff and were very supportive. But it was still a lot of hard work. They could teach us, but it was our responsibility to learn what we needed to learn. I knew that if I was going to make a career out of it, I had to apply myself because no one was going to do it for me.

Your education is what you make it, regardless of where you go to school. I believe my education was a good investment in my future and can only say good things about my time at CDI

I really regret going to CDI College, but as a confused teen I really didn't know what to do with my life after highschool. So, I heard CDI College offered great programs, and that they helped you find a placement all in less than 1 year. "Great" I thought...boy was I wrong. Here we are 4 years later and I still don't have a job in what I studied. I took...
