Stratford Career Institute

I would give Stratford Career Institute zero stars if I could. Their courses are all subjective reading and not well written. Their test questions are not about the main points of the reading material. It makes no sense!

At the start of this course, which I am still paying for and will slog my way though just for that reason, I considered another course but changed my mind before receiving any materials. There cancellation policy sucks. I had not received the materials but since it had been after 5 days, I owed them $100. So stupid.

Don't go here. The affordability is not worth it if you don't learn anything

So in my opinion although this institute isn't accredited it still gives you useful information towards becoming successful in your chosen field and still provides you books related to your chosen field, and is great for students who work better doing there own personal research. I'm not upset at all with the service so far and this is my first month paying for the service and I did receive my first book explaining actually accurate information on Law Enforcement. I did only leave 3 stars though because the institute isn't actually accredited. But at the same time it isn't like they keep that a secret or anything if you read through their website.

Their programs are not accredited anywhere in Canada and even employers are not accepting. One I noticed it's not worth I stopped payment after paying 400$. Then once I asked refund they are making stories and asking balance payment. Then they provide your all sensitive details to a third party company and they do harassments. Finally, they put a debt report to credit bureau and it's going to harm desperately your credit history. These guys act like thug gangsters when you call to resolve the issues, no professionalism at all and please be aware about them before face struggles that I faced with them

It said it was accredited, but they are not.
The exams and testing and stuff they give you is old. The material is okay, but have tons of WRONG answers. You put the correct information in and even on the EXAM you click the answers and they will then pick other ones that you didn't click. It happened more than a couple of times. I even wrote down the answers on paper and clicked send and they mixed up answers.

DO NOT fall for their BS scam.

I sent my down payment and have not heard a word form them a month ago.even when you call the student part they give you a line of crap.
I realy wanted to give my art a boost to help with a few thing i need to improve on but looks like they stole my money.because they have done nothing.

I got my high school diploma from Stratford career institute a 2004 I have had several jobs and I have been to college twice with the diploma so don't tell me it don't work because it does. And I am in the process of updating the information.

I have a high school diploma from Scitrainig. Unfortunately, it is worthless and counts for nothing for employment or further education. Please do your homework and research before signing up. Lesson Learned. Now I am pursuing my GED so I can further my education.

I am a student of Stratford Career Institute in Police Science and Criminal Justice.Both courses are well written and informative.I have learned the basics of the United States of America laws and procedures.I am taking both classes as an introduction of law studying.

It a ok place but keep in mind you have to go to a real school to finish your education none of the medical training you can get a license but it will help you get a head start on what ever you want to do.

My niece is an inmate at federal BOP. Stratford markets to the prisoners as a qualified educational source to reduce recidivism. During Covid the BOP stopped offering in house classes so she had to resort to Private educational sources. Stratford advertised in the prison and gave her hope. She finished the course and found out that Stratford School DOES NOT QUALIFY to credits earned to reduce her rate. We paid $500 for this course and it was a waste. False hope, false advertising and very misleading towards what is a very vulnerable audience, prisoners.

I have joined their administration assistance program.It had 7 modules. They just sent you book and then we have to read no online training nothing. How can one person can learn different computer topics just from book. Please don't west your money. I love to study so I have join this program but I haven't learn much. Totally disappointed.

I purchase a program computer and it say by one and get one course free well I'm claiming my feee corse now they want me to paid 240.00 for it no one said anything before that I had to paid it said free now I want to cancell haven't open envelope of book yet and they don't want to cancell cause it's been more then 30 days but again no one mention I had to paid till now that I'm getting overdue balance notice Really! I feel like this is false advertisement

This place is horrible I only been with them a month they are not professional they show u that they don't care about explaining anything or helping u they send a book like some of the other reviewers have said and u are basically on your own so yes definitely think about where and who u give ur money too I am locked out of my account and have been trying to get it resolved for 4 hours by telephone now with these people who can deal with people who are simple at a job for a paycheck they sent even reach back out to u to see how ya made out how do u expect new people to view ur company aa the best well this one has a long way to go dont waste your money or time.

Stratford Career School is a scammer's dream of making money & services useless, non-credited towards college transfers to legitimate Universities & not an asset on your job resumes as employer's don't consider this School as a means of future job as a qualified degree to consider for employment. Don't waste your $ on a school that has no beneficial future returns to show for as an accomplishment in higher learning! Consider a major University or Technical College instead. You're guaranteed the best of education and the best influence for future careers in the field of job choice.

I took a course years ago and was super excited. Come to find out that this is an expensive piece of crap that holds no value to any employer or school. They are not credited, so if you are doing this for yourself, it is great, but if you are using it for credentialling, save your money; no one/employer recognizes a school unless they are accredited. Now I have to start all over again with an accredited institution.

Please run from these people i signed up to go at my own pace an yes i missed a payment then they contacted me i payed the whole bill out now i can't get my work nor will they answer the phone when the operator did answer she told me she didn't care that i payed it will be three months before i could gain access to the program and hung up on me which was totally rude this place totally took my money i pray these people the best of luck smh their going to need it God is going to get them i hope this whole place burn down they fraud people.

I have taken three certificate programs with Stratford and I have enjoyed every minute of it. I took Psychology/Social Work, Criminal Justice and Canine Specialist. I am an ordained minister so the first 2 programs gave me some extra education to help me in my ministry. I took the canine specialist course because I wanted to be able to work with our own dog. I am considering taking either the Vet Assistant program or Spanish as a second language.

This institution is a joke, they will not respond to any emails and once you complete one section of a coarse they won't send you more and request more money! DO NOT LET YOUR CHILD TAKE THIS ITS FRAUD!

This is a BS place do not waste your money. I paid money to become a teachers aide and I can complete a course faster than it takes for my packets to come in the mail! What school doesn't offer UPS or Priority Shipping? I even offered to pay for UPS out of my own pocket. They said no. They like to state to me each time that your packets have been mailed out but thats a lie. This last packet took 15 days to get to my house. This is a crappy school. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!
