Universal Technical Institute

This school is a great school with much to learn from. The facilities are great and the instructors (for the most part) are incredibly knowledgeable and I don’t think there’s much of anything about a car that at least one of the instructors wouldn’t be able to tell you about. Taking manufacturer electives is definitely the way to go if you want to get your absolute bang for your buck from this school.

Now, I will start, by saying take my review with a Grain of Salt, as I am reviewing almost as an outsider looking in, not as a student…
BUT
WOW!
Ok, I will explain from the beginning. I run a non-​profit. We rent office space in the UTI Campus Building. So I have no affiliation with them except for that. But every day I see the employees, the teachers, teh students, and teh facilities, and it is IMPRESSIVE!
Students? Well, yes, you may not always get the ‘cream of the crop’, but you get some great smart minds. But what is more impressive? They are courteous, dressed neatly, clean and well mannered. The school stresses this after all. they want to make sure to teach you how to be the most presentable to potential employees!
Facilities?
Well, UTI is a national Trade school. Basically, auto and diesel mechanics (in other parts of the country, they also have body shops, etc). But you can go through the 51 week program with all you need to land a job. And not just an entry level job doing oil changes, but more. it doesnt just teach basics. FORD has their FACT advanced training program here. Nissan and Infiniti as well. Mercedes does their STAR program here, and the big trucks and diesel area is AMAZING — I am impressed to say the least.
staff?
They seem to care. Even one of the front desk receptionists is working on a project to help the students learn how to study better. They work with job placement, they teach great programs, and everyone is great and friendly.
Seriously. if you are looking to go into the auto or diesel/​truck echanic field, you woudl be STUPID not to check it out here. Professional, educational, and just an amazing school
