NUC University – Florida Technical College Tampa — Local services in Tampa

Been going here for a few months now. Love everything about it. Don't understand why someone rated it 1 star. This place is what you make of it. Give it a shot.

Update 1: La Salle has helped me with my resume, they send out job openings regularly and helped me secure my first IT job. I definitely recommend this school.

Update 2: Made it past my 90 days and I still love this school. Give it a shot. Got my A+, Net+ and Sec+. Next is Win 7 Config. Then MCSA Server 2012. If you think Win 10 is more important. No problem, they have that too.

Update 3: Month 10 at Help Desk, just passed my CISSP Associate test with ISC2. Working towards some security related positions. Starting class later this month for CEH and PMP. I hope to test out for both and then backtrack a little bit for CCNA Routing and Switching and CCNA Security if I need to. In case your were wondering, I still love the school and the ladies there really seem to root me on which is awesome. Current certs are A+, Net+, Sec+, and CISSP Associate.

Update 4: About 2 years after the fact, A+, Net+, Sec+, ITIL, CISSP Associate and CEH. I had made Helpdesk Tier 2 at my previous position. Didn't see a real future at that company. Joined a new company with the help of the ladies here at La Salle in a NOC with a competent team to learn from as I move up. Hopes are high and optimistic still. I am also looking into online college for a bachelors in Cyber Security. That starts in 2 months.

Update 5: La Salle set me up with jobs and training that helped to change my life. The next chapter involves more direct training and additional certifications. This is a great certification school and it will help you to change careers into IT. Like anything else, it will not make you a great student. That part...

Do not go here for nursing if you have anything minor on your record. I have a MINOR MISDEMEANOR charge from 20 years ago, from another state that is not florida. And NUC-FTC Released me from the nursing program almost one month after starting the program. I even showed them proof I am a florida nurse aide with an active license whom was also employed as a scheduler by a Medicare affiliated home health agency. I have tried multiple attempts to furnish proof of a full eligibility and clearance from AHCA and the Florida Health Dept to the person in charge of this matter, Yimi. All of my attempts were left with no response from any governing body from this facility. My entire duration in the program I gave outstanding academic performance up until my release. I was and am still absolutely devastated and was given no chance to appeal nor was I able offer further documentation from the state like I was told I would be able to do. I have left voicemails for the Director or Nursing as well and have yet to receive a response. I am going to try and reach the dean of the school and hope that i can get further assistance in this issue. There aren’t any other school that offer night classes in the Tampa area, and the ones that do are losing their accreditation and wouldn’t be a good option. I am losing hope in being able to become a nurse. As a single mom, it is very hard to find institutions that are accommodating of a parent who needs to work during the day. NUC- FTC seemed like the best fit and my opinion only changed during the process and duration of my being released and how I...

I wish I could go lower on the scale. These people at La Salle just want your money. Period. You would be better off going to Amazon and purchase a book and learn the material on your own. It was a complete waste of time and money. They're all hybrid classes, and the paste is very fast. The book I was issue was the cheapest book available on Amazon with a 1 star rating. After the course was over, I had to purchase a better book so I can better learn and understand the material. There's not enough time to learn the material in class. There's not enough hands-on as they claimed. The majority of their student comes from the military which is guaranteed money from the Department of Veterans Affairs. DON'T DO IT..... Invest your time and money...
