Frequently asked questions
  • Does Vale offer financing?

    We do not have a “financing” program. However, you are able to make separate payments. We ask for 25% of tuition at registration and the rest is due when the course starts. Several students have signed up for a course 3 months or so in advance and use that time to pay for the course in full.

  • Does Vale offer job placement?

    Vale does not have a job placement program in place.  This is mostly due to the large percentage of students already hired with the company that sends them to Vale for training.  

    If you are an Independent Adjuster, you are invited by Sedgwick to take part in their OnDemand program. Click here for details.

  • What time does class start?

    Please arrive at Vale on your class start date between 8:00am and 8:25am.  

    You will check in at the front desk and meet in our breakroom with plenty of coffee/tea/water as you await introduction to your Instructor.  

    Class starts promptly 8:30am.
