I went to NADC in 2006-2007 I learned a great deal while i was there. Most all the instructors are awsome and the president if he is still there Steve Napadano is a really good person.

However i would not reccomend this school because of the price after all the loans and interest you will pay right at 30,000 dollars. and it will take you ten years to pay it back.

I did get a really good education and i make pretty good money but not as a diesel or automotive mechanic. I am a millwright working in a oil refinery. The best two things i got out of the school was hydraulics and electrical. The diesel engines course was also pretty good.

As a recent graduate, i would like to start out with you get what you put into it. its fast past and will give you the foundation you need to build your career. Since starting this school back in 09' every single instructor i've had has giving me a lot of information to store in my head along with the hands on training.

they've been a great help towards building my future. i may have not liked the "in class" time but understood why. the shop time we got was amazing, if there was a problem (part broken or missing) the instructors gave us an opportunity to find it (if it was bugged); helps us understand what damage it can and will cause then correct it. if we happen to come across something that another student broke or left off the instructors would give us a chance to learn from the mistake and also correct. the school is always coming up wit

new training aids as the industry grows. Just remember attendance is everything, you need to be there to learn if not you're wasting your money

For just $23,000.00 you too can train for a job that pays $23,000.00 per year. After 1 year in school and 1 year on the job you will have averaged from today and over the next 24 months- 1 grand a month. Just go work a Jiffy Lube.

Working as a Corporate Recruiter with one of the largest CAT dealers in the country,,,my company as well as up to 20 Caterpillar dealers recruited exclusively from NADC. The school has a reputation of producing the highest quality technician available. The negative comments are from those that didn't apply themselves and were not serious about their education and were ultimately not picked up by quality companies from the job fairs. If you have the passion for this industry this is by far the best education that you can receive and placing NADC on your resume guarantees interviews....but you have to work for you spot...not complain!!!

To whomever may read this. Yes I'm currently attending NADC in the collision and repair side. Since I've been there, for the last four months, I have come to find that the teachers and the main head people are worthless. They are just out to get your money. If I was going to choose a school, choose UTI. They have THE best up-to-date schools and equipment.
