Private trade schools and charter schools are often just big scams -
the "official" community colleges and polytechnics have generally good
teachers and turn out qualified graduates.

It depends on the school. A local 'offical ' community college was much
different. A co worker taught for several years at one at night. He is
very good at teaching.

One year he was teaching a 2nd course in electrical. The students ere
grown men that their companies sent them there for classes. He found
out that they had just been passed through the first part and did not
know much. He had to fail about half of them. He was called in by the
head of the college and said that his services were no longer needed.

Seems that the college was just after the money from the local
businesses and all the students 'had to pass with a C or better'.
