CECU Applauds the U.S. Department of Education’s Final Decision on Gainful Employment

6/28/2019

 
​June 28, 2019 - Following the release of the U.S. Department of Education’s final decision on gainful employment, Steve Gunderson, President and CEO of Career Education Colleges and Universities, released the below statement:
 
“The U.S. Department of Education’s final decision commits our nation’s entire higher education system to full transparency. The Department has implemented the most significant consumer protection for all students, in all programs, at all schools in years. Instead of picking and choosing winners and losers in higher education, the Department will make available, in a student friendly and transparent manner, key data points at a program level for all programs at all schools.”
​“What the Department has put forth creates a single standard for measuring program quality and empowers prospective students with the information needed to select their preferred academic and career preparation pathway. This standard is universally fair and applies to all students, in all programs, at all schools, regardless of sector – something that previous Administrations did not do.”
