Has anybody here, gone to any of the schools, in Arizona? I'm looking to make a career change, and it looks like I'm gonna need some training.

I live out in Queen Creek, so Tucson might be my best bet, but I'm not opposed to driving across the valley, if I have to.

Do any the schools run on the weekends, or at night? That would be ideal, so I don't have to quit my day job.

Oh yeah, I've read enough horror stories about Swift, on these boards, to stay away from them.

 

i'll be going to ait after a put away a nest egg.
some companies will pay you back to your training after you
start working for them $100 a month up to $5,000.
there are state grants available and student loans.

 

AIT appears to be a good school...and yes, kinda pricey....but they will help you get a job...

It was mentioned in this thread and other places about state grants...and if your unemployed you can get a grant...any idea where I need to look??

 

In Ca. it's the EDD (employment development department), part of the unemployment office I believe. Check with your state unemployment office they should be able to help you.

 

AIT is a great school. they will train you properly, get you a job and if for some reason later down the road you need a refresher they will do that free of charge with a pre hire letter
