One school I considered claimed they are FAA-approved and have had no inspection problems, so “we’re as good as anybody.”

We always point to graduate ability/competence and airline opinion to counter this absurd statement. When we hear consistent statements from airlines such as “Sheffield grads are self-starters” or “We don’t need to pamper the Sheffield graduates” or “I’m never dealing with that school again!”, that tells us we’re doing the right thing. When other schools’ graduates request “refresher” training from Sheffield and not their own “school”, we know there is something lacking in the training industry.

Go with a 63-year institution…with a universally positive reputation – Sheffield School. No worries.
