Student Feedback
THANKS to the students who took the time to give us their feedback, good and bad, on their experiences at PSU. ======================================== "I am a master gunsmith, and wanted additional certification to get my FFL. Your courses and licensing guide helped me pass the ATF inspection first time through. They even complimented me on how thorough your courses were."
"I was going to open a home foster and day care program, and after checking into the requirements I got discouraged. It wasn't just your course, it was the counsellors and advisors who know every secret little aspect of passing State review that changed my attitude and achieved my life's dream of independence. THANK YOU PSU!"
"I am an electrician and was getting too old for the physical stress of home runs and other demands. I was going to become a contractor, and ended up getting combined certification in building, portfolio management, inspection and title agent. I am now a business person with not only my own contracting business, but my own portfolio of residential and commercial properties. In the 6 years since I took my first PSU course, I've gone from a $60 an hour tradesman to being able to retire on a $3 million portfolio. To say you go way beyond "teaching" is a terrible injustice, you really do care about the success of each of your partner-students. This is an ADULT oriented teaching and certification campus and program."
"I was a police officer in NYC and was addicted to taking courses. My goal was to someday become an academy instructor. Even though I took every course known to man from Quantico to NYU, I was told I'd have to wait until I was "older" to begin teaching. After only 4 months at PSU, you networked me into my dream job: head instructor at a major "Blackwater" type academy. It wasn't just your courses, my advisor opened my eyes to a whole range of private opportunities I hadn't even considered, and I'm now one of the youngest heads of a major training academy in the U.S. 'Thank you' somehow doesn't really say enough."
"I took PSU's advanced interrogation course and my boss now calls me a 'walking lie detector.' Both suspects and friends look at me in a whole new light with these new skills..."
"I was so determined to become my own boss that I spent a small fortune on maxed out credit cards and even triple mortgaged my home to start half a dozen home and web businesses that all failed. I took every course I could find, from real estate to cooking to home pharmacy. When I was referred to PSU, I was almost broke (sorry, I should have found you first). You guys got me into the home engraving business. BUT, what kind of University sends a struggling student their first YEAR of business to keep them afloat and get them out of debt?! Just when I thought engraving was just going to be another casualty of my bad luck (ok, even with your help it was a struggle), you hooked me up with a national Wells Fargo speciality order. That order made my year, and I haven't looked back since. I'm now out of debt, have 5 years of income saved, and have so much business I've had to move out of my garage into a small building with two employees."
"I earned my CSI Certificate from PSU online. It has gotten me two immediate job promotions, and 5 new job offers in only a month. I was impressed both by the other AATVS colleges that accepted my credits, and the quality of the material. But what really amazed me was my visit to your campus. I did not realize the extent of your lab commitment. In addition to extensive lab facilities, your gunsmith, technology, military and police science campuses are astonishing, not to mention your 100 acre range and training facilities."
"You really don't stop until you do EVERYTHING for your grads! It took time, but I now realize that, behind the scenes, you were working to get me bonded, registered with my association, added to the referral networks, trade accepted, wholesale accepted, and much more. My new business is doing very well thanks to your support and networks."
