Not sure about the other trade programs but the people who run the building trade preparation class are terrible. Jose Manriquez and the teachers are pretentious. I came there to learn and instead they assumed I wanted to build a house based on the very little information I gave them. No. I wanted to learn the process that goes into each individual area that goes into building. Not only that Jose and the men that teach are not very nice to women, the women and men teachers are both stuck up and I could see this place was toxic, taking advantage of people that have very little options. They don't respect they/ them pronouns. I do not take this place seriously. It's probably okay for people that want to be belittled and take 3 years just to learn one specific minor thing to be used as a slave. I would try somewhere else. There are plenty of other better programs, just have to look around, whatever opportunity that comes to you easy like this, is not worth it. Hope this helped, maybe you'll have better luck :) if you're a subservient male I am sure you will.

If you're looking for a place to get no help at all.. this is it! The fake friendliness over the phone vs the interactions in person were astonishing....

The enrollment process and orientation were rough at Richard N. Slawson Southeast Occupational Center. The Los Angeles Community College District allows you to enroll 2 or 3 months in advance without meeting or relying on a counselor to enroll you. Unfortunately, at Richard N. Slawson Southeast Occupational Center the counselor has to enroll you, (when it should be the admission office), and that could take weeks or month(s) or until the last minute if you're fortunate, whenever they feel like it. The online class was an improvement, although there were some technical issues, I liked that it was online and didn't have to travel to the campus in Bell. Overall, I gave it this rating because the class, text book, and test were free if you are an LAUSD employee.
