I truly love NCC. From day one, they made me feel like family, and I’m going to miss everyone deeply. The support I received, especially from the Legal Studies department, has impacted me in ways words can’t fully express. Thank you all for helping me grow, believe in myself, and pursue my goals with confidence.
I wholeheartedly recommend NCC to anyone looking to further their education. Take the time to explore all the incredible programs they have to offer, there is something here for everyone, and the experience is truly life-changing.

I had my mock interview today with Rae’Shonna and it was amazing. She answered all my questions and the feedback was great! I definitely learned a lot during my interview and even afterwards. She’s absolutely great and if you get the chance to have your interview with her I would say you’re in great hands. I’ve had my fair share of ones and this one was the best. Thank you so much for everything!!

I am 52year old military retiree and I can honestly say I been through several trade schools here in the Valley. From HVAC at NTI; Auto Tech at ATI and have visited numerous other trade schools in the city. Northwest Career College is in a class of its own.

My was thrown back by amount of staff you meet at the school; from the Admission Staff- Angelin Orozco (she is awesome) to my teacher Ms Tehran’s, I must of met 30 folks leading me through the process.

These people won’t let you fail😊❤️

Love NCC!

On my first day, 08/04/2025, as a massage therapy student, NCC surpassed my expectations. I appreciated the instructors who I met. Each one had a genuine enthusiasm towards massage therapy and straightforwardness. The instructors I met, are all geared with the mindset of preparing students from day one on how to pass the state required MBLEx exam at the end of the 6-month program; then onto graduation; then onto a career. NCC has a "positive zen vibe" as you walk the campus, with its waterfall-wall structures and numerous massage client/session rooms. A soothing and calming aroma lingers in every building of the campus, not just in the spa. To further propel students towards graduation, NCC's hallways are decorated with artwork of determinative slogans. An out-of-state family member suggested NCC. I'm glad I gave NCC a try!

I had a mock interview with Ms. Shonna for my Legal Studies program. I received a lot of feedback that helped me open my perspective. The atmosphere was welcoming and calm. The interaction helped me develop more interviewing skills and personal reflection.

In the short 5 months I’ve been enrolled with NCC I have had hands on help. All my instructors Mr. Leo, Ms. Alvarez, and Ms. Dona made a huge impact on my experience as a returning student. I would highly recommend NCC to all. They offer opportunities that benefit you!

I have never been the school girl type....and I have never felt very confident or comfortable in a classroom setting. However, once I started with Northwest Career College, that all changed. It became like my second family. I loved my teacher, my classmates, and the administration that works there. Everyone is always so happy. I love it.

I had an amazing Swedish massage with Eric G and I can’t recommend him enough! He was professional, attentive, and made sure I felt completely comfortable throughout the session. His touch was the perfect balance of relaxing and therapeutic — I walked away feeling refreshed, lighter, and completely at ease. If you’re looking for someone who truly knows how to help you unwind and melt away stress, Eric is your guy. Can’t wait for my next session!

Graduated from MAP last year. So far so good, I had a pretty good experience in school. I wish the radiology program actually wanted MAP students like they say. Most MAP students would work 9-5 and they don’t have any sort of night classes so it’s just a contradiction. They really don’t want MAP students😐

I am Currently enrolled in the legal program and i couldn't be more happy the teachers are very professional. One of the standout aspects of the program is its exceptional faculty. The professors are not only academically distinguished but also approachable and invested in their students’ success. Many of them bring a wealth of practical experience, which enhances the learning experience by bridging the gap between theory and real-world application. The diverse range of courses, including specialized electives has allowed me to tailor my education to my interests and career goals. Another strength of the program is its extensive network of alumni and professional connections. The program’s career services office also played a pivotal role in which were instrumental in building my resume. Thank you all NCC faculty for you are helping me build my life for success as i am excited to start next year already. HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND A HAPPY NEW.

Nevada career institute has been the best decision I have made. You get the best people to help you and the best teacher to introduce you to the medical field and start you off strong. Mrs. Jennifer has done just that. She is very detailed with her lessons and strives for you to gain the best understanding of the topics. Her way of teaching makes it fun to learn and retain so much information. Thank you Mrs. Jennifer for your time and support through my journey. Just as well as Jon who was my recruiter and continues to help me through my journey.
