I'm ready for a career change. Looking into MMI. Anyone have any first hand info on their program?<br />I've got all their school info and applications, but want to hear from somebody who's been there.<br /><br />Thanks for the help!<br /><br />John

I went to a school in Daytona Beach called AMI, (American Marine Insitute). Their program is only five months at a cost of about $8000. The school is also a factory Harley training school. I work with a guy that went to MMI. The school is good but will take a year and half to complete at a cost of $13000. At MMI you only go half day. At AMI you go from 730am to 430pm. AMI also has some diesel instruction, MMI dose not. It's up to you, bolth schools are good.

Had a "sales rep" come in to auto class from UTI universal technical institute. They really seem to have nice marine programs as well as racing, deisel, and motorcycles. Seems to me they were relatively cheap and did not mess around. Many different classes and such so I cannot tell you prices or lengths but I do know that they rush through things. I know a guy that missed two days and has to repeat the class (free). Might be worth checking into if you are a no-nonsense type of person.<br />Craig
