Fast Track Health Care -Roanoke Get an expensive worthless certificate in a week! Roanoke Virginia

So I took a one-week course for an EKG/ECG technician certificate due to an ad they placed in the paper that said, "Become an EKG technician in one week!" After taking the class, I went to go back and take the national certification when the secretary said, "Are you gonna do the phlebotomy program here next?" I said "no" and that I was happy with becoming just an EKG technician. She said, " Well, you can't get a job with just that certificate, you need both." That is NOT what the ad said. The phlebotomy program is around $2,300 and 5 more weeks of class and is not what I wanted. They waited til they got their money before saying, "Oh, by the way..." I am out about $1,100 and a wasted week ,which I should have known this was to good to be true.

They also filmed the class doing some dumb youtube video for the 'harlem shake.' We didn't HAVE to participate, but they did it during class time, so class was delayed and those who did not participate were forced to wait about an hour and a half while they filmed it. Completely unprofessional.

So if you go, look on their wall of graduates who have jobs and see if you can even spot ONE who got a job with the EKG certification. They might have other good programs, but the EKG one is worthless and whichever program you pick, you will have an unprofessional staff to deal with.

I am considering doing either a class action or individual law suit for misleading advertising.

I know the program was only a week, but if it's worth nothing that is still a wasted week and wasted money I don't have to throw around.

Hope this helps you avoid a mistake and hits them financially with this bogus program.
