Doesn't sound good.
Here’s an honest opinion from being a student here and real experiences I’ve had.
The orientation is far from a real orientation it’s really just a long drawn out “this is who I am” meeting with faculty you’ll never see again.
All the classes are primarily module learning and they are FAR from being consistent and accurate (even some instructors acknowledge how wrong some of the information is).
The staff can be very immature, talk badly about their superiors, complain most of the day or simply flirt with one another.
They treat you like you’re still in high school and have 0 care for your personal life so if you have a baby due, surgery scheduled, have to make frequent doctor visits or if a loved one dies THEY DO NOT CARE. They simply care about your attendance so they look good.
I’ve personally witnessed students ask instructors questions and be told “I don’t know about that I’ll have to look it up” like we could have avoided paying 38k and just doing our own research.
If you have ANY mechanical background you will 100% be wasting your time. The automotive and diesel programs are for people that don’t know what a wrench was (yes you guessed it an entire week was wasted learning, if you can call it that, what various tools were and how to use them).
They tell you it’s 60/40 in class and in lab doing hands on yet I’ve gone a whole month without doing a single lab.
Since I picked on pretty early I wasn’t going to learn anything useful I sought a job in the diesel field and have learned a lot more in a month there than I will ever learn from this school.
The cherry on top is that this school is not regarded highly on resumes as most of the accounts I work with have all laughed and joked about how bad their employees have been from Lincoln tech when they saw my shirt.
If you’re really interested don’t waste your money, go start as a shop help in your career field and work your way up.
