I was part of the Plumbing program and I was more than pleased with what I learned. My instructor Brian Jackson was incredible. He taught me so much. I couldn't have asked for a better instructor. I just finished my second week at my new job (which was found because of Nick Watermans incredible work and the Contractor Rodeo). The plumbers I am working with are all very impressed with me and the skills I already possess. This wouldn't be the case if I hadn't gone to ForgeNow. I cant speak to the other programs but if you want to be a plumber I recommend going to ForgeNow, Mr. Brian Jackson will set you straight. Also id like to say Rod is an unsung hero and does an incredible job.

Great school but teachers cuss a lot and I dont feel comfortable when they cuss so much saying bad words and etc it doesn't seem professional.

This school isn’t just about learning trades as I will be a graduate twice over this upcoming Friday forgenow isn’t just a school it’s a family. They teach you everything you need to be successful in these industries. All of the instructors are immaculate. I did the electrical wiring program with Mr. Gerald Trainor. Such a good teacher. I also just did the APM course with Mr. Ben Griffin, a top tier instructor at that this school isn’t here to lie to you they are here to help you succeed in life and you will always be apart of the forgenow alumni and family absolutely worth it!!!!

This “trade school” is no good and a waste of time and money.

Great school and great instructors. Had Mr. Mark and Mr. Brandon and they were great, best teachers Ive had. Explained everything throughly, now im making way more $ as an HVAC Tech than I was in the Army. Definitely recommend for guys getting out the military and are able to do CSP. This school sets you up for success.

Chris,

We don't have a record of you attending ForgeNow, and based on your reasoning ability, we don't think you would cut it. You are our 282nd review, significantly less than the "1700" AI reviews you highlighted in the post. To address your other points:

1. In 2025, we have placed our graduates with 200+ employers in 30 states.

2. The individual who left a report about unsolicited contact filled out the form on our website...twice. That is how we got his phone number.

3. Using college score card, (https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/) a government-run website, ForgeNow's graduation rate, employment rate, and median earnings are higher than most community colleges and legacy trade schools.

To reiterate, thank you for the review you most likely sent from your mom's basement and we hope you find some joy in life other than commenting on organizations based off an AI review.

ForgeNow called me, saying that I had contacted them and was was following up if I was still interested in going there. The problem is that I did not contact them. Makes me think of a scam with a lot of phone numbers to call and alot of time to scam other people.

Kirt,

Thank you for your review. Our CRM shows you completed the form on our website May 21, 2025 at 6:26 pm, interested in our plumbing program. A representative tried to contact you unsuccessfully on May 22, 2025 and September 11, 2025. Another representative reached out this morning at 10:22 am where you informed him you were not interested, which was updated in our system and you will not hear from us again. -ForgeNow
