Pros

Do not need any skills to find work here.

Cons

The place is a scam bilking students of money with false promises. The "degree" is worthless in and of itself. They treat their staff like children with cheesy games and decorations but micromanage to the extreme.

Dear Former Employee, We were disappointed to read your review. We are an institution that is committed to our mission to equip and empower students to excel in healthcare careers. And, we are proud to have more than 40,000 alumni across the country. In addition to our value to Champion Student Outcomes another one of our values is to Have Fun and Build Energy. It doesn’t sound like UMA was a good fit for you. Best wishes for your future.

Pros

Helping graduates, enjoy working with my teammates.

Cons

A lot of shady management decisions. The department promotes their "Corporate Partners." Problem is, they aren't. In fact some of these "partners" have requested that they be put on a DNC list. It's all an illusion. The practices I've witnessed were very similar to practices of CareerSource Tampa Bay. Management is entering placement data on information they cannot verify with either the graduate or the employer.
