Ashworth College Reviews:

I have no complaints at this point in time

I have always wanted to go back to college. Being married and raising 2 kids, I was not able to go to college. I have worked as an electrician for 30+ years, but was always hamstrung when it came to electronics. I came across this diploma in Basic electronics and thought, for under $700 and it includes books, testing materials, a meter and electronic supplies, I can't go too wrong. So far the course has been very informative, even though at this point I have only covered the basics. That's OK though, because I needed a refresher course on a lot of these. It looks like a lot of complaints are by people who did NOT read the terms of service and the rules. It plainly states that if you can't finish your semester within a year, there will be an upcharge if you want to extend it. Of course, from all the bad reviews, I really am not surprised, because most of the bad ones are IN ALL CAPS, horrible punctuation, horrible spelling and a really bad sentence structure. I'm surprised any of them are literate and could read at all, or comprehend what they actually read. I did not give everything a high score, I gave some of them a score somewhere in the middle because I have not had to deal with teachers at this point. The support I have had to get has been through the student portal and have had every question answered. I went through my employer to apply for reimbursement and they signed off on the reimbursement if I get at least a "C" on my courses. I am impatiently waiting for my supplies to arrive in the mail today so I can continue with my studies (I'm at 47% is a little over a month). I am sure things will slow down, but that gives me time to review what I have already been graded on. One last thing, you get what you give in anything in life. I will tell you one thing, any college you attend does not give a hang about whether you pass or fail. They got their money, so they are like a brick and mortar school. If you do not want to work, do NOT sign up for this schooling. READ THEIR TERMS OF SERVICE (if you have at least the basic reading comprehension). If my opinion changes, I will do a new review. Peace ...that is all...

I had to cancel as the school would not send me the correct textbooks to do the course. After repeated phone calls and emails, they basically scrugged their shoulders and had no reason as to why this was not done for me. I asked "Why" and got no answer...Silence on the other end of the phone...Don't waste your money. The exams were not well done either with missing diagrams etc
