Reviews
"I had the worst experience here. No info was given ahead of time for international students for their diploma course. It doesn’t run any longer. There were no replies to some important emails from Rachel Chapman in the office (later I learned they went to spam, very unprofessional!) and no orientation was provided. The hostel rooms were freezing cold and I had a nightmare getting WiFi in my room. The washer was dirty. No microwave in the kitchen. They didn't appreciate diversity but instead the 'tall poppy syndrome' seemed prevalent - like I had to adjust their ways for everything. It was the scariest, most nerve-racking experience of my life!! I don’t know if this seems normal for kiwis but they should have more awareness before marketing a course to internationals. And they didn’t tell me about the ten day refund policy, I would’ve returned in a hot minute. The manager David Noakes was unhelpful and rude. Very shoddily run course and even the director John Burnett left the next year. No matter what they say in reply this is to warn the general public before investing money here. Lucky for them I didn't sue them for letting me come 6 weeks late and putting it all on me to get oriented and catch up. Highly irresponsible management. This includes Brian, Michelle Vette and everyone there."
