First and foremost please consider other schools or institutions, I signed up while in the process of driving out of town with my husband and we weren't focused on the paperwork only what was being sold to us and yes the sales **** is good at there job. The structure of the course ***** within the Modules there are subchapters say 2-1a through 2-5 and you go through these subchapters to the end and get quizzes 2-1a though 2-5 ok how am I suppose to remember what was in 2-1 by the time you get to the quizzes, it should be you go though 2-1a and get the quiz for that subchapter at that time not 5 subchapters later. So I figured maybe if I get the text book for the Medical terminology I will follow it that way. I went to the website and rented it though them and I got a notification it was delivered and it was not, I called them and was bounced around finally I got a lady who check into it to be told I'm sorry that book is unavailable as that's an old edition and we don't have it. How can you sell me a course that's out dated and have no book available for it. So I called to see about canceling my course and was advised I only had 14 days from the start which was never discussed as I even asked my husband if they said that and he said No. I mean really this program doesn't set people up for success.Review from Kathy B

They were misleading when the program was sold to me. They included a laptop, never received, due to unforeseen events my course was delayed. When I was able to move forward aI was told they had moved to a new platform but was able to complete on the new platform; however they never could get my completed portions of the course to move over and I was unable to access the information. I continued to make numerous calls and was told they would have someone return my calls and never would. I completed the course through a ***** offered by my employer a (Hospital), and after paying 2100 for the Career Steps Program and not receiving anything but 2 books I only requested a vouchers that was included in my purchase to sit for my boards. 499 dollar voucher. I was again passed off and no one wanted to help and was very rude. They have no clue how to handle customers. So I gave them 2100 dollars for nothing and they never tried to get me signed in or help me with their new platform. Not a school you want to invest in. They will reward you for good reviews though. They try and buy them.Review from Joslyn B

I started the phlebotomy program August of 2022, completed the online training by February, 2023 and was certified. Moving on to the externship portion of this process I basically did their job for them and found a location for me to complete my venipunctures. They FAILED to submit the needed paperwork multiple times and made me reschedule my venipunctures 3+ times. It is now February of **** and my externship advisor ***** responded to my emails since before October. I email my advisor at least once a week with just ??? at this point because of the many emails they will not respond to me. I absolutely do not recommend going through the money, time and trouble with this program. Im at the point where I just want my $2,400 back since this program failed to get me into the field Ive chosen and as their website states is guaranteed job placement.Review from Miriam S

These people their sales team ommited information and when I called because I was not able to start the program they told there was nothing I could do since I had signed a contract. Unfortunately I did not read it because it was via email to my phone so I was not able to read it since I had just gotten to my job. Now I have a financial company demanding payments to the load they gave to that school.Review from William B.

probably the worst written class I've ever taken. so many errors, and like someone said in another review, they have answers to questions that are the incorrect answer. I think I sent the coding support like 10 emails about questions on quick checks that disagreed with the module you just read. On top of that so many spelling errors and grammatical errors. I mean at least the main things in the modules are good information. But the quizzes and quick checks are super hit and miss. you'd think for like **** dollars it would be more polished. very disappointed. we'll see if it pays off once i finish the courses.Review from Alyssa C

Someone of behalf of career step LOST a $2000 check sent directly from an employer and refuses to let me speak to a manager or even file a complaint. Zero communication, zero effort to fix the issue, absolutely negligent. The check was received by career step in JULY and it is now NOVEMBER and it is somehow lost on behalf of career step.Review from Gabriela M

The worst thing I did in my life, I didnt start the course till a few days and going through the chapters on line I wasnt reading anything about coding, I called for books and they refused to send them to me, and they sent me a certificate saying I passed on my first 2 weeks. So since they wouldnt give me my books I called to cancel and they said I couldnt because I had to cancel before 14 days, I didnt know, now I have collections calling me that I owe $3700.00 they are charging me $1 day for interest so thats why I stopped making payments I offered to pay $1500 to close my account and they refused what a nightmareCareer Step, LLC Response

Dear Learner,Thank you for sharing your feedback about our Careersteps coding and billing program. We appreciate your input and want to clarify a few points.Our program starts with instruction on medical terminology and billing basics to build a strong foundation before moving on to coding. This approach ensures that students understand the healthcare industry before diving into coding. You received a certificate for finishing the first section of the course. Not a completion certificate for the entire course.As for the timing of coding books, they are provided when you reach the coding section to ensure you have the most current published codebooks, which are updated yearly to reflect industry changes.Your feedback is crucial to us, and we genuinely appreciate your perspective. We are continuously working to improve our program and ensure that all our students have a positive learning experience. If you have any further concerns or suggestions, please feel free to reach out to our support team.Review from Chloe W

I paid $100 to Career Step in late February 2023. I didnt know what I was getting myself into, but now I regret even signing a contract with them (that was forced on me). I didnt recall getting told about a 14 day trial and when I called to get out of my contract, they said there was nothing they can do. Now, I got debt collectors calling my phone every single day harassing me about money I cant give them. I told them I have a child on the way and they showed no remorse NONE. I never want to talk to do business with Career Step again. All I wanted to do was get out of my contract before I had to start the payments but now this nonsense is impacting my credit and my life VERY negatively!!!! Highly would not recommend doing any type of business with them!! They only care about the money!!!!!Career Step, LLC Response

I signed up in May22,2023 for the Dental Assistant program but then I changed it to ********************** They said no problem it will still be the same amount of money $3,899.00. When I starting searching and ask my friends that did the program they only paid $450 . So I called my advisor that now doesnt want to talk to me or is always busy . I want to cancel they said no because its pass 14 days when today is ********************************************************************************************************************** have proof of . I ask the lady again send me the contract that I still dont have and she said yes ** going to send it and she never did either. Im going to find a lawyer to see if they can help me in regards of this manner.I should of done more research before talking to this school . Its a shame that they just want money and I see all these complaints now . I hope the General Attorney can fix this matter for school that rip off money like this . The lady even told me that they dont have a direct line or extension to call anyone which I think is a total lie.
