Sage Institute of Child Care Questions & Answers
Does anyone know if you’re able to get transcripts from them?
I'm feeling very nervous now I just signed up yesterday and paid a deposit and don't start to July next year. After reading all the reviews I haven't found one good one. Is it true that their is a 10 day cooling off period? Would I get my refund back? For 12,000 I don't want to be screwed.
Sorry you wont get your money back they are being investagated in november 2016 because of numerous complaints again by asqa l tried getting a refund they obviously refused good luck
You can get your money back before the census date, however they can scam you after this date. This school traps people as they only have one census date unlike others. I was stuffed by this college if I was you I'll go elsewhere as right now I have no diploma and my fees gone. So I'll be very careful with this school it is also run privately so not many avnues to complain except for asqa.
Dont do it! I trusted them and enrolled in a massage course. Paid my total bill on the day only to be billed a further $18K through the tax dept. When you try to contact the GM, the owner and the CEO to discuss your grievance, they will totally ignore you. DO NOT GO TO SAGE! I warn you.
Thank you everyone so much for your feedback, extremely helpful. How have. How have they been able to do this to people is behind me.
Talking about CEO, i called robert housely by phone, he could careless i asked him why i was getting racial comments like why educators were saying "black people dont deserve an education", once he realised id already paid my course he refused to answer my phone call or have a chat with me he was very rude and refused that educators where discrimminating angainst students and he refused this was true. So this is the ceo refusing to accept complains, dont expect to be treated RESPECTFULLY FROM THIS SCHOOL. Do yourelf a favour and go elsewhere!
Goodluck with your journery.
I've had exactly the same. The owner Vicki Richardson and the CEO, Robert Hornsey are an embarrassment. They are unethical, rude and completely influenced only by money. Stay well away from Sage and tell everyone else you know to do the same.
it's not THAT bad, I attend sage right now and all these reviews are very dramatic and over the top. I found work placement easily, and have had no problems with teachers. There are so many negative reviews out there, its beyond ridiculous.
@on23 Maybe you should stay there for aliitle longer, maybe after the census date before this they are so sweet until they bank your tuition fees an send u out without a diploma and no academic transcript. I was a student for 2 years complete waste of time and complete RACISTS of their BLACK students. To all out there these are real reviews of how they are don't get scammed, thats why they have these reviews don't let anyone tell you anything else!!
Haha unfortunately this is a prime example of don't believe everything you read on the social network. Most of these comments have been fixed so you can make up your mind to go elsewhere. You should be asking facilities that do the hiring about Sage and when you visit the campus, you should be seeing 'how dirty' or clean the facility actually is. I studied at Sage and got sick on some students complaining about things, instead of actually listening to the trainer.
I only had two students not finish the course in my class and everyone else gain employment throughout the program.
Again most of these people that are commenting here either didn't study at Sage or are of the thought that by complaining, will ease the lack of not wanting to be trained. In an attempt to gain some sort of pride back I guess.
Again frustrating to hear poorly worded and negative comments when clearly most is untrue.
Directors are racist- come on that's a bit old...
@matt J "I only had" clearly Ur not even a student there probably a educator or some thing along those lines, And clearly Ur not black so really don't expect you to really get it. I've been there for 2 yrs. There are a lot of reviews clearly all people can't be telling tales these are real people's stories of the place. Maybe stay there a little longer prehaps like myself 2 yrs FREASHBOY!
Then maybe you will get it!! SAGE IS NOTHING BUT LYING SCAMMERS!
