  Loved the small class sizes and one on one experince with my instructors throughout my courses here. Katie with student affairs is by far the best person around, super helpful and caring with whatever the situation is. Small campus makes it easy to navigate and find classes. Instructors are patient and willing to spend extra time with their students.

  I was hired to create a Career Center and laid off two months later because there were no students to place in any jobs. Turnover of employees is very high and most people I worked with had not even been there a year. The faculty is made up entirely of adjuncts with no permanent core faculty or academic board to advise and lead. Outside of aviation, many students seem to be academically lacking (judging from their resumes) from students graduating from similar programs at other colleges. Even the Education Director seemed to be actively looking for other positions as several times she unknowingly sent me emails on the company server for other Education Director position postings. They now have no Career Services Center and nobody there who has any professional experience in resume writing, by their own admission. The owner makes you sign a non-compete agreement barring you from working at any other college in the area for one year after leaving, even if they terminate you. There is no 401K company match for employees, barely any PTO time and the pay is below average for the market. I have been in education for over ten years and I have never seen a school more poorly managed than Academy College. I would be shocked if they are still in business a year from now.
