Is TWS worth it?

I'm looking to go to Tulsa Welding School in Jacksonville Florida after I graduate high school this year. I'm in my high-school's career tech program and should graduate able to pass a 3g open root D1.1 test. From those who have recently gone through the program any where or specifically the Flordia campus how was it? How were the instructors, equipment, classes, and most importantly was it worth it? I've seen a lot of good and bad things about them such as most graduates can't pass a test, and I feel like that is a person dependent thing as I have that experience in my current class some people are just lazy and won't put in the effort. Finally what are your opinions on community College programs such as Jefferson State or Lawson state specifically as I'm in Alabama.
