I was a grad of the Chubb Institute of technology and I have to say it was a waste of money. The school is too expensive for what they teach. I am sure Anthem probably kept the same instructors so nothing has changed. I remember they cram so much into a short time of study. I compared a similar program at my local community college and the program was longer than at Chubs. If you are thinking about studying at this place, look at other schools specially your community colleges and state colleges.

Yes the new Anthem Institute, I personally would not recommend this school to anyone it is not worth the money it is very expensive and most of class time is waste doing nothing some instructors expect us to cram everything in one night for an exam although the exams are short but still we cant cram the night before for an exam this is not a way of learning for your future its just memorizing for the exam and the next day you forget most of what crammed the night before this place is the worst many students are lazy they dont cooperate with instructors that are trying to teach, any student should not only blame the instructor that they dont teach is the students who are immature also. But dont enroll in this place its not worth it.

I agree with this comment attending this school is a waste of time and lots of money all the teachers do is waste our time and specially for us who work so hard during the day. We try and do all of our assignments and other students who dont do anything they still get credit for the assignment I think this school is a rip off f...... school suks.

I hope that anyone who is interested in going to this school reads this comment. The Chubb Institute is not worth the money they charge. They say anything to get you into the school and then when your there it is nothing like they say. All of the monthly (modules=classes)are ridiculous. I have already finished the classes for both ekg and phlebotomy and have not learned either of them. Some of the teachers don't even know what they are doing. The whole school needs to be evaluated. I am really upset that I have to pay so much money for this school. I feel that I have wasted my time and money. Both which I can't afford to do. I have spoken to more than a few people that are attending this school or have already graduated and not one of them have anything good to say about Chubb. I just hope that I can help other people before they lose money and time attending this school.
