CECU Annual Report
As the national association representing the proprietary sector of higher education, we have been relentless in our advocacy for our schools during the onslaught of federal regulatory and legislative activity we have faced. As this annual report will show, our dramatic increase in membership has resulted in a positive balance sheet and a massive upgrade in our capabilities.

​​​CECU 2021 Annual Report
Veteran Alumni Outcomes
​A survey, conducted by Hanover Research on behalf of Career Education Colleges and Universities (CECU), aimed to help the organization and policymakers learn more about the needs and outcomes of veteran students and veteran alumni who attended a proprietary institution. The survey results provide insight into how military-connected students and alumni perceive their experiences at proprietary institutions, understand what motivates servicemembers and veterans to pursue a career education program, and examine whether program outcomes align with alumni expectations.
Career Education Review
The Career Education Review (CER), a publication of CECU, is dedicated to providing top management, owners, sector leaders, and suppliers with the in-depth information required to operate a successful educational institution. With over 95 years in circulation, CER is a trusted ally in the admission, retention, placement, and education of millions of prospective students every year. CER serves as the daily pulse of the private career education community — bringing a snapshot of the news, trends, research, and upcoming events.​​
Private Career Schools Play a Vital Role in Infrastructure

​As Congress debates a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill, it is clearer than ever that the growth of our nation’s economy and infrastructure depends on the contributions of private career schools graduates. To aid in this discussion, CECU has created a one-page reference document highlighting the critical role our sector will play as the nation works to build back better.
