Yoobee College of Creative Innovation - Auckland City Road Campus

Just completed the 7 week online graphic design course with Yoobee.Whilst the content covered off was comprehensive, no textbook or reference guide was provided for the content, meaning that if you need to check how to do something, you need to wade through 3 hours of video lesson content to find it. Photoshop, Indesign and Illustrator are technical and finicky, if you do something in the wrong order it doesn't work, and each program does things slightly differently. Having a reference guide where you can quickly see the steps and work out where you went wrong is in my opinion essential. Instead, the lessons consist of the tutor showing you something on screen once, asking you to repeat the steps whilst they're there and expecting you will always remember how to do that after the course ends (without any notes short of what you manage to scribble down in between following instructions). Whilst doing the course, I learned that Adobe have Classroom" books for each of their programs

Save your time and don't go here - there are much better (and cheaper!) places available to learn the things they claim to teach you at this school.

Threatened to kick me out because I said I didn't like the course and almost all of the positive reviews are the tutors.

Top of the line Creative Arts College. Get the knowledge you need from lectures with working industry knowledge.

Started the course (software engineering) recently and its been a down hill from the start. Course is bland and full of empty info, I would recommend MRHQ or Enspiral Dev Academy instead, they actually put in effort for their students. On top of that we had all the students waiting for a teacher that did not even turn up, we were all asking for help and he just aired the requests. Save yourself and go to another institute that values you.Update - The course content is getting better and they very much push asynchronous learning, if you wanna get better at managing your own time/learning. I wouldnt come here for this course regardless.

Never answer the phone if you value communication go elsewhere

Me no bee

They dont know how to teach students.

I studied the diploma of digital filmmaking at Yoobee and by the end of it, I felt like I had been part of a scam. The teachers had no real-world experience, some of them had only studied the course themselves the year before. Terrible education, don’t give them your money!
