  Please see our response below:
  
  *********************** was a part-time employee at PTTI for two months. During that short time, she was paid over $6,000.00. While we feel this forum may not be appropriate for her to voice a concern, PTTI acknowledges the complaint filed by our former employee and student. PTTI has refunded her tuition in full to the appropriate agencies that provided payment. Please note tuition at our Institute is $18,200.00 not $30,000.00. I have attached *************************** account ledger which reflects that her federal financial aid was returned and her account now has a zero-balance. 
  
  We wish ************** well with her future endeavors.

  Philadelphia Technician Training institute's former response to our former employee's compliant is as stands. The re-attached ledger reflects that the employee's financial aid was returned, and has balance is zero. The photos taken are in violation of the photographed student's federal privacy protections (FERPA). However, we would like to share that the photos show the student has on a harness (so he does not fall) and the scaffold is securely tied to the structure. The scaffold and boards are OSHA approved and setup properly.

  We wish ************** well her future endeavors!

  PTTI  lied I worked 3 months and was paid lest then half $3000 I wasnt a part time employee I worked 37.5 hours a week . I was fired and wasnt able to come back to the school because I reported the unsafe conditions as well as not certified teachers or licensed electricians teaching classes in the school. The school is unsafe and should be closed down. I was not given the opportunity My locker they cut the locked off my locker still in my twos were over $1300 as well as a brand new pair of boots. *******, ******, and ****** and *********************** was trying to write a police report to take to the police station to lie because every time someone find out about these scams and unsafe practices they try to go to police district and write false allegations about they stole something I have a police report number as well as the fact that they trying to stop my unemployment, so I cant get unemployment as other employees thats in this defamation of character case as well. I think the school should be shut down and if you need more pictures or more videos I can upload them. I think the school is a scam as other students is 100 and thousands of students that still havent even received they certificate stating that they finish the school fax my bill is writing the false transcripts. They stealing millions of dollars from the federal government . what no Im not satisfied with the lies that they told and the Better Business Bureau complaint I want a refund I want them fined I want to school shut down because I was a student as well as employee and they are messing with people background in their education scamming them.
