Pinellas Technical College-St. Petersburg scores 781 — these providers rank higher on Verdica's composite trust score.
The Verdica score is a composite trust score from 300 to 850, computed from accreditation status, Title IV outcomes, and IPEDS data maintained by accreditors and the Department of Education. A score of 781 places Pinellas Technical College-St. Petersburg in FL in the strong (740–799) band. The score reflects publicly available regulator data — it is not a rating from Verdica itself and does not incorporate paid reviews or advertising.
Verdica combines three weighted sub-scores drawn from accreditors and the Department of Education. Each sub-score reflects a different dimension of education compliance — accreditation standing, graduation and default rates, and financial responsibility — and is normalized against industry peers before being aggregated to the 300–850 scale.
Verdica pulls public records from accreditors and the Department of Education: accreditation status, Title IV outcomes, and IPEDS data. Data is refreshed on rolling cycles, typically weekly to monthly depending on the source agency's own update schedule. See the "source data current" indicator on the entity page for the last successful refresh.

I attended Pinellas Technical College in St. Petersburg, Florida, where I completed the 220-hour Facials Specialist program. If you are considering a private school for this training, I believe you would be overspending. The program is led by Ms. Shereka Solomon, who is truly the backbone of the training. She brings decades of industry experience and goes far beyond the core requirements of the program. She is deeply dedicated to her students and ensures they develop the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to become proficient in the industry. You would be very fortunate to train under her and complete such an excellent program.

Yes. Entities can file a dispute directly from the score page, and business owners can claim their profile. Verdica reviews disputes against the underlying regulator record; the score is updated when the source data is corrected. Scores are recomputed automatically as new regulator data arrives.
My welding instructor Scott deserves a 5 start review. Ms.Wilson also deserves a 5 star review. The guidance counselors are glorified intake specialist. The financial aid department does not care, they just want their money. The principal Dr.Jason Schedrick just struts around like he did when he was my middle school principal with over inflated ego. The facility staff, and other teachers, and students deserve better leadership. Also Accountability, clear communication, support, and understanding for all. If you have a child interested in a trade school, I recommend the drive to the Clearwater campus.
Thank you all for the great hospitality!
I'm part of the graduating EMS class of "26" this was the best school with the best instructors I've had in a long time. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enter medical or EMS!!
The Facials Specialty Program is a masterpiece! Led by Shereka Solomon with a top tier curriculum. Students are provided with everything they need to be successful, ongoing mentorship and placement after graduation. The building itself is spacious and has security worth noting. Identification is required to enter thr building adding a layer of security.
