Honest question and educated responses please. An employee here who would like to know what I am not being told.
You know there's a problem as an instructor when you are not judged by your teaching ability, but rather are judged by your Outreach skills.
Sad. Sad. Sad. And leadership seems to feel no shame about it.
Brad Janis
IS BRAD JANIS STILL AT WYOTECH? Best campus President wyotech ever had. He always listen to your concers and deal with problems right on the spot. I really hope he is because if not that school will be in ruins.
Every day I come here shocked to read that people actually think there's some future for CCI schools.
Clock is ticking peoe. Four months. Bitching about your bosses and jobs isn't really useful. They won't be a problem for you after December. Or much, much sooner.
Question for Admissions
Why do you enroll someone into an online program who does not have a computer and who does not have basic computer skills beyond turning the computer on and clicking on the big blue “E” that is on the desktop?
Restructure?
What is the purpose of this restructure? I can see restructuring when you plan on being in business for a long while. I cannot see restructuring when you will no longer exist in 4 months. These people continue to lead us to believe that everything is... — read more
Some instructors report to a bully—Instructor Attrition
With everything that has been going on and the reality that the end my indeed be near, some instructors are just trying to hang on until the end of the DOE’s 6 month timeline to sale. Sometimes it is difficult when your boss is a bully. When you... — read more

Who would be in your bottom 3 if you knew their salary and could vote them out for termination? And out of the 3, who would be fired?
Tolling of the Bell
I keep waiting for the final bell for CCi board dream wreckers, including that pompous moronic fat ass michael stinkfish and his stooge douglas, and the list goes on. All in favor say aye!! They changed lives alright. They are road kill and are... — read more
Why do the students get out of their great big trucks while smoking a cigarette and talking on a cell phone only to walk into class and...
Suggest they have no money. It cracks me up every time. In any event, ask the students for a cell phone recommendation. How many have cell phones? All of them. And they get the latest model every 12 months, or sooner, so it seems.

Wyotech Laramie Closing
Do you know anything about this. Used to teach there, some good folks worked over there - I am sad if they really closed.
Money is dwindling.
California's 60 day suspension of VA funds is now permanent. No vets or Active Duty or Retired in California will receive any VA or GI bill funding to attend school at Corinthian Colleges. More and more income sources are being cut off for CCI. There... — read more
Lincoln Tech - Discussion Needed
Hey guys, no posts here - let's start a discussion - they deserve it as much as we do, let's say each of us posts a short blurb: http://www.thelayoff.com/lincoln-tech
ECMC purchasing Everest Colleges
Any truth in this? I think they have enough problems, they do not need another one. Yet, this rumor is persistent.
No updates from CCI or Heald means free updates from John Oliver of Comedy Central
Comedy is reality with a twist of humour. Although, not really funny with what's going on with the sell offs with the colleges, John points out clearly that they're in real trouble. They also interviewed existing students who qualified entrance into... — read more
Self Important Lecture Trolls are the Worst!
Wish they would focus on getting their own lives. It's sad, really, that they spend their time here, edumacating us on what they've learned from Google. I'm glad I don't waste my life on a board I have no connection to. After this job is gone, I... — read more
CCI was never a school
It was a vessel to milk title iv, disguised as a school. For years, CCI, UOP and other "schools" preyed on the most vulnerable in society to "get asses in classes." They paid used car salesmen (enrollment reps) lots of money to do this. When the... — read more
What would a potential sale mean anyhow?
Even if they rebrand after a sale, CCI schools are deeply wounded and in debt.
What would a potential sale mean anyhow?
Even if they rebrands after a sale, CCI schools are deeply wounded and in debt.
Even if ECMC buys any CCI schools (it won't), that means nothing.
There are no guarantees you will have a job. And they certainly won't be paying what you make now.
When Grand Canyon University was bought, the new owners cleaned out ALL GCU employees
Reason? It was easier to bring in new people to train in the way they wanted things done. New owners wanted there people in and yes, that meant a full house cleaning of the organization...and I mean full house cleaning. Rest assured, no new buyer... — read more
ECMC is more than a collector of defaulted loans
go to ecmcfoundation.org and see the bigger picture, they are also in the business of assisting a population of students who need more hands-on attention to succeed at post-secondary education

Raise your hand if you think a company that collects on defaulted student loans will get DOE approval to start up a college?
That literally makes no sense. The company by it's own business model WANTS students to fail/default. It's in direct conflict with ANY college goal. I'm sorry, but I think ECMC as a viable sale option is a joke. Accreditation bodies don't seem likely... — read more
JODY COHEN?
What about Jody Cohen??? She still there???
Even if CCI schools sell, there's no employment guarantee for anyone.
Especially of it's not for profit. All salaries and bennies could be cut even further.

Insider Trading at COCO

It's true! Star Wars is buying Everest!!'
May the force be with you!
Today's terrific rumor: someone (not a troll - wink wink) suggested SOCLE would most likely buy Heald!!!
It just gets better every day! THIS is why I can't leave this site!!! I can't wait for the announcement that Dunkin' Donuts is buying Wyotech. Or Batman!
Great news for those of you who hate your bosses and your jobs!
After December, you won't have to be bothered with any of them!
3 more months and all will be final
