5 /5 Chay Shear: I had a great experience training at MMI in Orlando, FL! There is so much I want to say about this program and the instructors, but Ill try to keep it short. There are so many mixed reviews about UTI/MMI & I understand why... the GI bill for our military is the lifeline that keeps this school alive & its bad practice to bite the hand that feeds you, so the programs are basically set up to pass every student as long as attendance requirements are met. With that being said, it really is a matter of WHAT YOU WANT TO GET OUT OF IT! If you WANT TO LEARN, the instructors are full of so much knowledge, information, experience & the desire to teach! I can honestly say that I learned something valuable from every instructor that will help me in my future as a technician. Chmielewski*, Pogorzelski, Duray*, Wynn*, Lohlein, Redel*, Marrippodi*, Stein, Marsh, Mentzel, Stellato*, Reddick*, & Jackson. And my appreciation goes beyond the instructors as well... Tim Yarborough went up to bat for me when my circumstances caused me to postpone my stay date (more than once). Reinke & Sanchez were always helpful if I needed them. And Natalee Rojas... I didnt think I would need career services, but I was soo wrong! This woman put in the work to help me find a new job after Orlando HD let me go. She never gave up on me even when all seemed pointless & I switched to metric. I got several interviews thanks to her referrals for me & continuing to send my resume to employers. 2 months after I graduated and Natalee was still in contact with me & steady putting my info out there to every motorcycle shop with an opening. She believed in me when I started doubting myself & her persistence for almost a year affords her my utmost appreciation & I cant thank her enough! She is awesome!
So thats my short version. MMI FACULTY can facilitate an exceptional experience & can provide anyone with more knowledge than he/she will know what to do with as well as be a fantastic resource for helping set a path to a CAREER of your dreams IF YOU WANT IT! -- Chay
