OCM (Onondaga-Cortland-Madison) BOCES Review

I enrolled for the Dental Assisting program, it was a big mistake, the program started on Feb (back at the old location) so we couldn't practice using the chairs(due to moving). when we finally moved to the new location we were excited to use the chairs but still we didn't get the chance because there was no water hook ups or suctioning . Believe me when I say that we finished the class without even suctioning once not once, imagine graduating and not even knowing what suctioning or proper assisting is like, Everyone in that class was complaining about the teacher (Karen) because she didn't know what the heck she was doing all she makes us do was PowerPoint and text book stuff, no hand on anything, I went out the the dental world blinder than when I came in. I learnt what I learnt from my internship. If karen is still the teacher please look for another dental program somewhere else.

im not really a fan of boces dealt with them a couple of times and was not very pleased with the results

Attending the hvac/r program. The class is way to big for the teacher to handle by himself don't take away much at the end of the day sad to say

Ok, I called to ask about classes and speak to a human. They wanted to send me a brochure which I can easily find online. I can see what you offer. And I can see that you have no interest in selling a program or helping a customer. No thanks, great put off on education.

Took the automotive adult ed class with Mr. Michael Gregory. He was a really great teacher and taught me tons of stuff. For a 7 month course this class was very comprehensive. I got hired right out of my internship at a great dealership making better money than I ever have. Was definitely one of the best decisions of my life!

I took the phlebotomy class which I gel was a waste of time. They don t do clinical so here it is a year later with no phlebotomy experience and no one will hire me. It was mainly all books and we worked on mannequins so obviously that was pointless. Waste of time and money.

I took the electrical maintenance program with Larry Casey and was very disappointed. There was very little hands on training, and the teacher seemed like he didn't know what he was doing and pretty much gave up the second three months of the course. I learned little to nothing and the internship i took at GA Braun was frustrating and very unhelpful! The whole experience felt like a waste of time and money. This course did not prepare me for any real world application and I would not recommend taking this course to anyone

So far so good the class is very use full. And will help me get ahead a little at my job and with the things I have to do around my home.

Showed up for PD here and they pull a fire drill.
Not well-planned.

The bully in Liverpool boces need to be put in check picking on kids with disabilities is not right how would like if someone want there and bully you around no one better than the next I would never let my kid there if the teacher let it happen and don't do nothing about
