Amazing school and instructors! I took the Pharmacy Tech course last year. Within 6 months of finishing the course Drusilla helped me register for the national exam and found an externship location for me. I also was able to start at Kaiser by the end of the year! Incredible people at Vasco would definitely recommend!

After the whole covid debacle I decided to go back to school and take up Medical Assisting. I looked all over the bay area including the city I live in. I came up on Vasco Career College. The moment I walked in to check it out I felt the warmth and love. I didn't feel like they just wanted my money. I truly felt they genuinely wanted to teach the students and prepare us to go out in the work force to start our career in the health field. Six months later here I am graduating and feel well equipped to enter the field and contribute to make a difference! Awesome instructors and the director is passionate and genuinely cares about her students.Thank you all I would definitely recommend this school!!!

I attended the VCC back in last quarter of 2017, Ms. Drusilla (School Director) equipped all of us to pass our Board Exam on January 2018. This school opened a new life for me and for the rest of the students who are willing to have a better future. I am a Mom of four and still working as a Customer Service while studying in the morning. This school offers the best! Now, I am happily working in Pharmacy Laboratory!
