Student Success is Built on Trust, Transparency, and Commitment
Student satisfaction drives our decision-making and helps us regularly adapt to the needs of our students. All students are surveyed at the completion of each five-week term and are asked to provide feedback on their overall course experience, instructor support, confidence in their skill building, and more. We are proud of our high student satisfaction rates, consistently reaching our goals of 90% or higher each term. We value transparency and have committed to posting the complete survey results each term for prospective students and active students to review.

13:1 Avg Class Size
Students learn faster and perform better in smaller classes. A class size of fewer than 20 students often results in more individual attention, increased participation, and better communication between the instructor and students.
'Very friendly and easy to understand instructor. He was more than willing to assist and explain topics if ever needed."
"As always it was a pleasure to have a seat in Dr. Andersons class. Very knowledgeable with some witty humor on the side. Dr. Anderson describes the code as it is and leaves it up to you to sort out the pieces. I love this approach as it gently guides you to the correct answer while still learning key concepts."
"Mr. Miller always kept me on my toes during class which made it fun to learn programming!"
"Just a great class and I was able to grasp a base of what I am going to be getting myself into. Also every question that I asked and provided with everything I need to be successful when I take the CompTIA ITF+!"
"It was hard for me to keep up with the quizzes due, causing me to fall behind for most of the course. Having the entire 5 weeks to complete the modules is helpful. It would be a little easier if the class ended on Sundays instead of Saturdays. I appreciate you allowing me to turn in my work later and still grading it."
"Awesome intro to IT!"
"My first course with CIAT and I am very impressed with the level of support I have received from Sasha, Jenny H., along with our instructors. Wow!"
"The fact that I am in a different geographical location was of no factor for this course. The fact that I could go back and watch recordings and talk with the instructors via email in rapid time was convenient and valuable for getting through the course. A+ all around. I look forward to the coming courses. Thank you all!"
"Mr. Reyes was very attentive and available! His class instruction was a bit hard to follow... I believe he just needs a little more experience in teaching. But otherwise, I enjoyed this course!"
"I love my instructor and everyone else in CIAT. They are flexible and willing to help me succeed."
"For me, weeks 1 and 2 were overwhelming as it was all a lot to take in. As the weeks went on, I felt more comfortable and began adjusting to it. I believe moving forward, I will be better prepared for future classes. This was a great experience."
"Building a PC as part of the curriculum was a great experience. "
