Definitely I would recommend doing a 2 year program and getting your 3rd or half your 2nd. 4ths are a dime a dozen and it is tough to get a job with a 4th and no experience. Husky Thermal won't even look at your resume unless you've got 3rd and working on 2nd.(not saying they are the "leader" of the pack, but I'm familiar with what they are looking for right now)
I took the power program at MHC for a year, didn't have my sheet together and had to leave. They meant business and are serious about creating knowledgeable professionals that contribute to their employers immediately out of school.
I then went to SIAST and got my 4th. Decent program but their lab facilities at the time were poor.
I would not recommend Lakeland College I've had practicum students from there for the last 4 years and they struggle. I took the 3rd Night program there...waste of money, I was correcting the teachers examples as he was trying to teach it.
Rambling a bit...end of a night shift! PM me if you have any more questions I can help with. Good Luck.
