Heald Sale
I am still optimistic that we will be sold. It will be nice once we can move past this!
Such a sad time when...
Everest schools get bought before Heald Schools.
Parts of CCi sold. Not Heald or any other campus in CA

National University is buying Heald College?
Don't be surprised if they do. :-)
Agonizing
The worst thing that any owner can do to its employees and customers (students) is drag out providing an answer on the future. Nothing can break a person more quickly than failure to communicate. Imagine a spouse who says that he or she is not sure... — read more
11/18/14 - Still in the dark
The little, insignificant players of this game are still in the dark. Thanks Jackassimino
Heald is the Best Part of CCi - News Today
You can count on it
"The company does not care about me ?"
Any company does NOT have to care about you. They just have to pay you! You have your own family to care about you. Go to work, get paid, go home to the family who cares about you. This goes for management and lower employees. It's a bit hypocritical... — read more
ANNOUNCEMENT EXPECTED TODAY - IT IS MID-NOVEMBER!
Wait for it.....wait for it.....
I Was Held at Gunpoint to Get Skills In Automotive
I don't want to get work, I don't even want to try. Because I'm certain that I was FORCED at gunpoint to get these skills. WWWWwwwwaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh
If you ignore them, they will leave.
Ignore the trolls, and they'll go away. They always do. They feed off attention.
What a shame....
Our board is starting to look like the CCI board. What a shame.
I Went And Got A Degree to Be A Dental Assistant
But then I realized that after a few years that I don't like to smell people's breath. I need to blame someone for MAKING ME GET AN EDUCATION IN DENTAL ASSISTING.
Another Person Who Wants to Blame Someone Else for Their Life Decisions
Typical. Anytime someone's life doesn't go their way, they say that they were held at gunpoint to get an education. Brilliant
Heald to be taught out.
Heald is going to be taught out. It's over folks. Expect a formal announcement in a couple of weeks.
Very Interesting ...
Thank all of you for being truthful. I may have to reconsider my offer now.
Wow
Somebody has a lot of free time! How many of the accusations in all those posts are true, I wonder.
Interesting.....
I find it interesting that nearly two days go by without a post, then suddenly, within 10 minutes today, 7 negative comments below are posted all within a span of 1 - 2 minutes of each other bashing Heald! Four of them are from apparent students and... — read more
Angry Much 48391/48392/48393?
Those three posts were obviously made by the same person. Why so angry? Disgruntled employee? Vicious troll? No way you're actually a Heald student.
Heald College employees give examples of poor management practices at Heald
"Micro-management. New management team was very controlling and authoritative. Focused more on problems than solutions." -- "Very micromanaged and poor leadership or support from management. Employees felt worthless." -- What suggestions do you have... — read more
Heald student calls Heald "worst college ever" in 2009
I had briefly attended Heald College (at the Stockton, CA campus) from October to December of 2007. Who knew in a few months I'd be wasting good money. At the time I felt I wanted to be an accountant, so I decided to go to Heald College. They really... — read more
A Heald complains about fraud and cheating by Heald College personnel
Last August I called heald to get some information about their Medical Assisting Program. I spoke with Michael Hendricks who later became my admission counselor. During our meeting I informed that I am going to be transferring to City College of San... — read more
Bad Management Examples
Heald has two glaring weaknesses. The first one could be easily addressed. At Heald your fellow instructors are competitors. Why is that bad? Because it leads to a lot of backstabbing and destructive interaction between and amongst faculty members... — read more
Awful Employer
No training, no development, terrible management, no opportunities for advancement, multiple lawsuits always ongoing, and definitely fits the description of a predatory college.
Stop the Lying, Heald
I went to Heald College with the idea of furthering my education quickly. This seemed like the best idea. The snake oil salesman sold me on this dream of quickly completing my education then moving on to 4 year colleges with minimum of 2 year left to... — read more
Heald is a Scam
This place scammed me like many reviewers talk about. The advertised "lifetime job placement" is full of crap. They really don't help you with nothing after you graduate, except with a link to post your resume online. They can't even extend a helping... — read more
Heald Fires Military Veterans
We should not let Veterans Day go by without remembering that unqualified "managers" at Heald were allowed to fire a veteran earlier this year. That veteran, by the way, is an executive at a Fortune-100 company and Heald was incredibly lucky to have... — read more
Sales News?
Doesn't anyone at Heald have a clue about the sale of its campuses? This is getting extremely ridiculous
Wow - All that talk of sales in progress - what a hoax : (
I seriously was hopeful that a new owner would buy us, and there would be hope for us, employees and students, to prove that much of what we did was right, and to simply work harder on our programs job outcomes. I am still in disbelief that... — read more
Heald is done and to be taught out.
No one is willing to buy the Heald WASC has too many conditions for the transfer of the accreditation. The declining enrollment coupled with Heald's inability to pay the current bills means that it is OVER for Heald. Heald will be taught out or in... — read more
Hawaii Campus?
just read the building is being sold. Will the campus remain or is it moving?
The "Forgiveness Loan" is now in effect. $500 million plus! Heald grads and current students
are notified and are being helped in reducing their loan amounts. Some have already been forgiven to pay back, if not working, only 30% of their loan amount over the course of 10 years. How they contacted us, I'm not sure, but every student I know... — read more

Upcoming round of layoffs without severance
Has anyone heard of another round of upcoming layoffs and this time without severance? Someone was telling me that certain financial changes need to be met prior to the sale so the new company does not have to assume liabilities, severances... — read more
Heald will be sold, but...
Will not maintain most of its executive leadership. Duplicate roles will be let go: human resources, marketing, finance, some IT, regional oversight for admissions, student services, registrar, career services. Only WASC support roles will remain in... — read more
