Frequently Asked Questions

Who teaches NYC Career Centers’s classes?

NYC Career Centers’s classes are taught by experts in their respective fields. This ensures that you learn in-demand and current skills needed in your career. You’ll learn from seasoned designers, developers, marketers, data scientists, and analysts. Most of them have their own freelancing or consulting practice which helps keep them current with the latest industry trends.

How many students are in a class?

NYC Career Centers’s typical class ranges from 8–12 students, but we accept up to 20 students.

What do I need to bring to an in-person class?

For all in-person classes, we provide computers with the software, so you can travel light. You can bring a pen and notebook to take notes if you'd like.

We will email you prior to the course if your course requires additional materials. For instance:

  • Premiere Pro: bring headphones to class
  • Google Ads: set up a Google Ads account before class
  • HTML Email: make sure to have an active Gmail account

How are the classes taught?

All our classes are taught with projects and exercises and are hands-on. There are instructor demos or lectures throughout the course, but students spend most of the time working on exercises and mini-projects with guidance from the instructor. This hands-on instructional method ensures that participants can apply their skills right after the course.

What happens if I need to miss a session?

You have some options:

  • If you can’t come into the classroom, but can still attend remotely (live online using a screen sharing app), please let us know ahead of time. You can access the Zoom link to attend your class remotely by logging into classesportal.com. 
  • You can make up that session in a future offering of the class, provided that the class is running with an available seat.
  • You can go through the workbook exercises for that session. Ask your instructor about what you’ll be missing.

Is there a lunch break during class? What time?

For day classes that run 10am to 5pm, there is a one-hour lunch break typically around 1pm. The exact break time may vary. There may also be some shorter (5-10 minute) breaks throughout the course depending on the session's pacing.

For evening classes, there are only short breaks.

Are books provided?

For most classes, a complimentary book or training manual is provided (physical copy for in-person attendees, and eBook for remote attendees). See the individual course page for more details.

The classroom space was very comfortable, spacious, with state of the art equipment. The instruction manual handed out to all the students is excellent! I would be interested in taking more courses with NYC Career Centers.

Oh boy, NYC Career Centers is the bomb diggity. The staff knows what they are doing and are happy to help. The course does what is promised, if not more. All the materials necessary for the course are supplied and feels brand new. Also, if you take a break by the water cooler you get a great view out the window, make sure you don’t lose yourself in the spectacular view!

Adam Tzach

Very passionate instructors, incredibly thoughtful, insightful, and able to answer questions that require a fundamental understanding of how HTML and CSS work without hesitation. Not afraid to show their thinking process, how they tackle a problem they hadn't encountered yet, and how they debug their and the student's code.

Samuel Giminian Munoz

Choose NYC Career Centers! Best quality instruction and instructors, great materials, fast computers, easy to access location. Will be back!

This is my third class with NYC Career Centers—and the first online via Zoom. The online instructor and class was just as good as my in-person class experience. The exercises taught skills applicable to enhance our projects. NYC Career Centers is top notch!

Julie Grant

I have taken NYC Career Centers classes in person as well as online and both types were excellent! Great teachers, and I love that Career Centers allows one to retake a class within a year. I took the Graphic Design certificate class with Eugenio during fall of 2019, and Career Centers allowed me to retake the 3 Adobe bootcamps online via Zoom with Dan Rodney in June 2020. Retaking it online allowed me to gain additional insight and acquire a much more solid foundation in Illustrator, PS, and InDesign. Thank you NYC Career Centers! Highly recommended.

Amy Baker

I immensely enjoyed attending the graphic design courses by Dan Rodney, he is very skilled in this field and he has a great way of going over the material at a nice pace and in an informative way, always answering questions and staying overtime if necessary so that we leave the class knowing all the material. I took this course over Zoom and I am very pleased with the format and overall outcome.
