There is no proper resources or opportunities.

Faculty: The only good thing about this college was the faculty. They were encouraging, friendly, supportive, and helped us whenever we needed help. They truly cared for us and taught us well. They had real insights and industry knowledge. The semester exams were also very easy. Anybody could pass them without much difficulty.

Satisfied with this college.

Faculty: We have supportive faculty and are friendly in nature with students. I think they make students ready for industrial level. As per my point of view, the exam is not much difficult because teachers are already teaching and ready for students. All the students are also satisfied with their percentage, I guess.

It’s value for money, for those who aren't serious about their future.

Faculty: If I talk about my experience, only my direction teacher is good, and I guess I shouldn't talk about others. The curriculum is also bad. Exams are pointless, I guess, and it's okay for this mid-tier college. Also, the course curriculum isn't relevant. I rate it 4/10 in total.

Go for it, short-term 1-year courses are the best.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful here. They will do personal mentorship if needed in my course, and if I talk about my course, my semester pass percentage was 100%. My course and my semester were too good, even I have done more than 10 projects in a year.

Dissatisfied with the infrastructure.

Faculty: The faculty is qualified, but to make the best out of it, the college hasn't spent much brains on that. The whole syllabus feels scrambled, and lectures are jumbled up here and there. It can help students to improve their skills, but the pace of the syllabus is confusing, some basic things take a longer time to teach than advanced things.

Review of AAFT for the Certificate in Culinary Arts course. 

Faculty: The course curriculum is fine, and so are the exams. I am not very fond of the faculty. They are qualified but unable to impart knowledge in a proper manner. Sometimes, they are unable to answer questions, and often 2 different chefs give 2 completely different instructions/feedback.
