So each term as an online faculty member I find my "contact person" is different, now it is someone who has the title of Program Dean of Online Education (the person with this title seems to change from term to term also unless there are several). I... — read more
New CEO
If you could chose a new CEO for CCi and they would take the gig, who would you choose? It can be someone internal, a former employee or someone completely outside the company.
Is the investment community full of a bunch of fools?
Down to 14 cents, but back up a bit. Either this is a really good time to buy, or the investment community has placed the right value on Corinthian. Should I put $1,500 on the line for 10,000 shares? Possibly the price is too high?

Mass Layoffs? Not for 60 days unless CCI gets a waiver

I work about 4 months to earn what Jack is paid every hour.
And all the problems are pushed down...
CCI students are the WORST in the industry.
Why would a potential buyer want to deal with 'students' that only want to supplement their welfare with stipend checks? They are not ready for college nor do they even care about learning or succeeding.
How many of you feel like you're being picked on by your Program Director or other higher ups by getting sent emails about your interactions?
I've been hearing from others that they're getting emails regarding what they're doing and to verify their activities. Are they picking their next group to be on the chopping board?

26866 is the poster child for I d I o t. A discusting idiot.
Things looking up for CCi
So we have now been paid multiple times, there have been no lay-offs, and rumors are swirling of multiple buyers. The cost-cutting moves were obviously designed to save jobs. I could be wrong but I think the worse is over. If we can just hang on I... — read more
Student employment, yeah right.
Why is it that program chairs get all bent out of shape when a student says they were not hired for the job? I mean, many of the students at my campus dress like the only office that they work at has a stainless steel pole in the center of the room... — read more
New UoP commercials are classy. Why didn't we go that route?
I'm looking for serious responses here. I've only been with CCi 2 years and don't know the history behind why we use our "get off your couch" approach. I can see that that may have been a catchy tactic at one point - but for it to be our only... — read more
EUO Tampa online
Working the weekend sux! Its so nice out too.
CCI can try to rebrand. Change the name. Maybe make some non scary commercials.
But if your motto remains 'asses in the classes' it's all going to stay the same. I'm going to stop complaining. I'm taking a job teaching at a real college, where my job is 'instructor' not Outreach Specialist with a splash of teaching. Good luck to... — read more
Any other corporation that has as many problems as CCi has would have fired the CEO a long time ago.
It makes no sense that the board of directors have not called for Jack's resignation months if not years ago. This just proves that the plan is to rebrand themselves and continue to rape students and tax payers under a new name.
I can't speak for the 85 schools that are not on "teach-out to be closed in a year", but for my campus .........
In response to questions about campus F/A departments being busy or not.........As of July 8th, I'm the only one in FA. We still have hundreds of students. Required Federal procedures have to completed (student loan exit counseling, default... — read more
The finch that apologizes against Fitzmas...
Anyone notice that anytime someone suggests Fitzgerald is doing anything more than rubber stamping the ELTs friends' (I. e. Ameritas') invoices, that said apologist jumps up quickly saying, "Fitz is only monitoring.... and rubber stamping... no no no... — read more
That's OK Jenkins
Jenkins can say whatever he wants to whomever he thinks is listening. Nobody is taking him or the company seriously; except for a few delusional "privatization saves everything" dolts. Cci refuses to acknowledge that the half truths they reported... — read more
Walked into an office today
Nothing new but thought I would share. I walked into an office today, and there was a female under the campus presidents desk. The president had a smile on his face. From the color of hair bobbing up and down, and the shoes, I know which admissions... — read more
If leadership can blame instructors when students fail, who do they think employees blame when a COMPANY fails?
Call us instructors out, Jenkins. F*** you. You guys are failing US! You're lucky to have us. Show some respect!
Ironic that Jenkins Called Out Instructors. Leadership Has Failed Us So Badly, What Is THEIR Excuse for Staying On?
Nobody's firing them for doing a crap job.
My Career Advantage
Has anyone else had trouble logging into My Career Advantage?
If you want proof it's not instructors, look at all the fails on test and quiz scores in online classes.
Instructors have absolutely no control over them. I think maybe 10-20% pass them on a weekly basis. Maybe 1 or 2 students get an A. Those have zero to do with my teaching. But it shows the students' inability to either read or a lack of the most... — read more
Hiring Manager for Call Center, WTF is going on in Denver still hiring upper management
We over heard management is ready to hire a manager for the call center in CO, and they already know who they want to put in that position...they already have too many managers working banker hours...now wtf to that Jack. Maybe you can move to CO and... — read more
Maybe Ken Jenkins and the rest of leadership should get their asses in the classes
so they can see why we really have high attrition rates.
I suppose it's the instructors' fault this ship is sinking, too?
What the hell! Why not blame is for using all the toner, too!!!! Bad instructors! Bad! Bad!
Hey Jenkins, we instructors have the EXACT same amount of respect for you and the leadership of CCI.
Ken Jenkins with his snide remarks relating attrition to instructor performance can go kiss our asses!
Maybe if Kenny got out of his grand office and open his eyes, he would see the type of students that CCI recruits. Many of them can't read or write, and belong in kindergarten. They are open enrollment, do no basic skills testing, and offer no... — read more
What do Directors of Finance do now that there is so little left?
I try and stay out of student finance, but I have to wonder what the Director of Finance does now that most of the finance employees are gone. Did all the work go to Socle?
