Beautiful campus. Lots of updates to the college. Only seen the main part but it is very impressive. If I was returning to college that would be great for me. Instructors and staff along with students very friendly.

Cannot find anything about how this school operates. All the important information is so secretive. I hated attending this place. Terrible!!
EDIT - IGNORE THAT REVIEW!! I was upset because they charged me a fee for not returning my books. Even after two weeks and after Christmas break, I came back with the books and they refunded me about 90% of my money! They were so sweet and understanding about it too! ECTC is a lovely start for anyone. I’d recommend it. All the professors are very nice. The school is very clean. Lots of helpful information everywhere! They’re helping me build a better future.

Staff was extremely professional and very friendly & helpful including the custodian who took time out of her busy day to ask how we were doing and if we needed any help when touring the campus with my foster daughter prior to her starting classes in a couple of days.
The campus was very nice and well maintained.

Based upon Veterans services
The college itself is a perfect transition between high school and college or if you are just getting back into school. The veterans service department is one of the worst I have ever had to deal with. I have dealt with them at 2 other universities and never had the issues that I have here. They don’t care about their veterans or helping them succeed. They will tell you to call people they know aren’t in the office (without telling you). They make it as difficult as possible to even speak with someone about their programs. They don’t put out information about veterans events happening on campus until the day of the event. And the coordinators question everything without giving the veteran the benefit of the doubt. The people have job security so their care of the people they are helping is none existent. If I was just the college I was evaluation I would give it 5 stars.

To be honest, professors are supposed to care about their students and help them if their having problems in class but that's not how it is here. They just care about the money. I don't recommend this college at all. If you don't believe me, just look up the graduation rate for this college.

This is an amazing school. I am currently taking the Automotive Technology program and I have Mr. Poteet as my instructor. All of the automotive instructors are amazing as well. However, Mr. Poteet has taught me a ton. I went into this semester not knowing a single thing about a car other than it has tires and an engine that makes it drive. Now I know about all of the sensors, how to pull up data on a scan tool and so much more that i just cannot put all into this review.

Sadly with all the benefits there is only 1 bad thing i can come up with. That is one of the English teachers, Professor Kennedy. He is very unorganized and just an overall bad indtructor.

This minor detail should not outweigh the amazingness of the school. I couldn't ask for more from the instructors. Something I almost forgot was the president of the school. That guy is amazing and knows how to joke around but still get work done. All in all this is an amazing school that I would recommend to anyone looking to start there degree.

Like if this was helpful.

Great school if they cover a trade you're into. Always a clean and nicely managed facility. Teachers I've had are all cool and friendly.

In my experience, the majority of teachers were very unambitious. The one that had any amount of passion for his subject was extremely bigoted in his opinions and belief - the sort of man that can't compliment one thing without insulting another. One of the professors even went so far as to miscalculate the final grade for the course - this is the same IT teacher that ran a Blackboard jumbled with repeated grade listings and still maintained assignment listings from several years ago. Their test questions were almost entirely ripped from online study guides, but with purposefully altered wordings so as to make it hard to distinguish the question being posed. One would assume an IT professor would be more capable in utilizing technology than that. This is the quality one can expect from ECTC's professors, in my experience.
The administrative side of things was much better. Frequently hosted student events, and many of them were very friendly to work with and eager to help. There were a few grumps, but the majority were very genial.
