The answer is: of course! Below I will make a comprehensive evaluation from the aspects of teaching mode, teaching, teachers, employment, educational system, institutional qualifications, expenses, word of mouth, accommodation, transportation and so on.
I. Teaching Mode/Teachers/Teaching
Teaching mode: in terms of learning effect, it must be face-to-face teaching in small classes. & gt& gt Remote Double Teacher > > Pure Online Course > Video Self-study Saying this sentence will definitely offend many training peers. However, in order to ensure that students can really learn the skills of future survival and livelihood, face-to-face teaching is the most recommended teaching mode when choosing institutions. Compared with other teaching methods, face-to-face teaching has too many advantages! ! ! !
Teachers: About lecturers, listen more and compare the teaching styles of teachers from different institutions. Listening to lectures can help you find teachers who suit your own rhythm. In addition to teachers' teaching style, we should also pay attention to the choice of teachers: teachers' qualifications, academic qualifications, teaching and project experience, etc. Obviously, a highly educated teacher who has been immersed in the IT industry for many years and has rich experience in projects and teaching is more convincing than a young teacher who has just entered the industry.
Teaching: mainly investigate the accumulation of institutions, teaching and research ability, and the response speed of after-school evaluation and counseling. For example, is the syllabus updated quickly? Does the technical setting in the course meet the needs of the current industry? In the face of various learning problems encountered by students, whether there are perfect solutions, etc. What should I do if I miss class for some reason? What should I do if I don't understand and can't keep up with the class progress? Are the measures for evaluating teaching, checking for leaks and filling vacancies perfect? Is after-school counseling efficient and timely? Wait a minute. There is little difference in this general interview organization, so the total score is relatively low.
Second, employment.
In a contract society, words are groundless. Before signing up, all kinds of promises were hyped, and after graduation, they were sent away defenseless. There are not a few such institutions. Therefore, it is an indispensable link for both parties to sign an employment training agreement when they enter school, and it is also the greatest guarantee for students' interests. Of course, in the employment agreement, we should pay attention to whether there are other unreasonable requirements besides regular study attendance (such as being late and leaving early, not attending classes, skipping classes, playing games by self-study, copying others' homework or coping casually). Generally speaking, all major institutions are similar, and the rules are generally formulated from the perspective of ensuring learning effect. As long as students have a correct attitude and are responsible for themselves, their families and their tuition fees, there is generally no problem.
What needs special attention is that 99% of the training institutions that advertise that students can earn more than half of their salary after graduation are false propaganda! Don't question the above sentence. You can't go wrong with me. If you don't believe me, you can't get 99% of the publicly released classmates, even if you ask them to call or check their salary to confirm their chat records. Of course, three to five years after graduation, such wages are generally almost the same.
Three. History and qualification of running a school
Needless to say, the longer the school term, the better. On the contrary, when choosing IT training institutions or all training institutions, it is recommended to choose the old one instead of the new one. Maybe you will say: the new institution is cheap! In fact, in the long run, reliability is more important! Reliability is the premium reason of established institutions; Compared with emerging new institutions and established IT training institutions, they care more about their reputation. Established training institutions have accumulated more teaching and research, richer industry resources and wider employment options. On the other hand, for example, Wanhe IT Education, founded in 1993, as an industry veteran, has accumulated an excellent teaching experience system for a long time, which is in line with the rapid iterative curriculum system in the market and the employment resources connected with major IT Internet software companies. These are difficult for a new entrant to do well in a short time, so don't worry about how the new institution blows, just don't believe it. In addition, the old institutions cherish feathers and pay attention to reputation, but the new institutions are different.
Everyone knows that this qualification program in China is a mess, because there are too many so-called qualifications that have no gold content and can be bought with money. So this time, students have to keep their eyes open during the examination, Dochado confirmed. For example, the credibility issued by the national government must be greater than that of any cottage industry association. For example, the industry recognition issued by international manufacturers will definitely be higher than that issued by unknown certification companies. It is said that there is no bronze medal authorization for the final university cooperation with many universities, and the high probability is that the credibility of bragging is basically zero! Think about it. There are authoritative institutions such as the government, universities and large factories to endorse it. That institution is definitely not bad.
Fourth, cost.
At the beginning of the article, it is mentioned that: in terms of learning effect, it must be face-to-face teaching in small classes; & gt& gt Long-distance Double Teachers > > Pure Online Courses > Video Self-study From the price point of view, basically follow this order. The overall price can be divided into three grades: the first grade is about 2W for small class face-to-face teaching and distance double-teacher training, the second grade is about 1.3W for pure online courses, and the third grade is about 0-3K for video self-study. Although the effect of face-to-face teaching in small classes is much better than that of long-distance double teachers, there is little difference in price between them. The price of pure online courses is about one-third cheaper than that of small class face-to-face teaching and remote double-teacher teaching, because there are also lecturer costs, but there is almost no investment in offline rent and venue costs. The cheapest one is video self-study. If there is counseling service, the price may not be so cheap. If not, it's pure video. If you find resources to download or buy directly on the platform website, the price difference is great, but the overall cost is much cheaper than the first three. The shortcomings of video self-study have also been summarized above, that is, it is difficult to solve the work after a long time. Therefore, this project is mainly face-to-face teaching in small classes. Although it is a bit expensive, it is worth it!
Five: word of mouth evaluation
Four, word-of-mouth evaluation 30 points:
How to treat word-of-mouth evaluation and accept it completely, no matter how good or bad it is? That won't help you judge whether it's good or bad, it will make you divide it very carefully. Because of human nature, others are good to you, and you will probably keep it in mind silently, instead of preaching it everywhere; But others are not good to you, and there is a high probability that you will intentionally or unintentionally tell some bad impression details of this person in your communication and conversation with others. Therefore, there is often a difference of more than two orders of magnitude between the number of evaluations on the internet and the number of real students in institutions; Even in the e-commerce industry Taobao JD.COM Pinduoduo, the sales volume and active evaluation are generally much different, not to mention some training institutions that take offline awards. Then, what are the methods of consulting the relevant information and word-of-mouth evaluation of reference training institutions?

Network evaluation:
Dialectically treat Baidu, Weibo, Zhihu and other network evaluations. Everyone has the experience of being wronged, and it is difficult for every merchant on Taobao to find 100% favorable products. Therefore, we should treat the negative situation of the network dialectically, and don't fall into the trap of the other party because of the deliberate smearing of peers, and don't be misled by the anger of individual students. So how to treat the negative side of the network correctly, I listed the following points for your reference:
The same account, short time, a lot of negative comments, are generally students who have disputes with institutions.
The same account, after a long time, has a lot of negative comments, which are generally deliberately smeared by peers or professional network black hands.
Different accounts, a large number of negative comments in a short period of time, are usually caused by institutional accidents or deliberate smearing by peers.
Different accounts, long time and many negative comments. Generally speaking, the organization is really not so good.
In addition, it should be emphasized that bad reviews should be treated according to specific circumstances, and the main point is to look! All right. Festival! ! If it comes up as "XX institutional garbage" and "XX deceives people", just filter out this bad review directly, which is worthless at all. The high probability is to black peers, or to vent their dissatisfaction for some reason. If it is the kind that points out the system problems reasonably, then the credibility is relatively high.
On the contrary, there are four kinds of praise, including students' sincere gratitude and the amount of brush of the institution itself. You can give different weight scores for the above four situations, and make comprehensive judgments and scores.
6. Accommodation+transportation+learning environment 10.
I won't say much about this one. Everyone who goes to work wants to work with a little more or less money and be closer to home, which is almost the expectation during the study period. Generally speaking, the learning environment is not very different, such as accommodation, transportation, subjective factors, etc., so this item accounts for less in the overall score.
final result
It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. In view of the time to promote industry change, short-lived training institutions emerge one after another; Therefore, whether the topic owner or other students want to find IT training institutions or other training institutions after seeing this answer, this answer can make them have their own preferences in the process of investigating and selecting training institutions, appropriately modify the weight scores of each item and apply them directly. I hope the above reply can help you choose a reliable training institution, and attach the scoring model. Students who need a scoring model form can pay attention to it and send it to you in a private letter from a friend.
