How does one run a school with inexperienced leaders paper whipped teachers and students thinking they are actually getting the proper education? They are only worth 10.00 per hour because they do not time out and the managers fear real managers with... — read more

Concerns to Zenith monitor
Has anyone expressed their concerns to the Zenith monitor Clark Ervin? His email address is clark.ervin@squirepb.com
Here's the aforementioned post about ECMC and Zenith.
Like @KILAvQR-3sri below, I work at ECMC. The place is not the same. Senior leaders are bickering. Org is being run by a committee who don't like or respect each other. The personality of the company is gone. Hardest working executives there have... — read more
ECMC getting more like Zenith?
Interesting thread about ECMC on this site. Check it out. Sounds like ECMC leadership is floundering. Any Zenith employees have some insight?
How's Enrollment Looking at Your Campus for January?
Not looking good here. Will be the lowest start for us since last January. In fact it is less than last January.
How did ECMC go wrong? Does ownership obligation end in February 2017?
What did ECMC get wrong in their 2014 deal with the US Department of Education? And are they done with all ownership obligations in February 2017 (see bottom of page 4)? If they are thinking about bailing, why did the ECMC Foundation pour $250M in... — read more
CJ + Paralegal

Gainful Employment reports
Has anyone seen the "gainful employment" reports for Zenith schools? Zenith should have received the reports in October and they had 45 days to respond. The reports are supposed to be made public in January, but I haven't heard a date. Apollo... — read more
Just a few questions...
With help from some of you who helped me develop this, I'd like to ask these questions: (1) What month and year did the CFPB start to investigate Corinthian Colleges? (2) Why did the US government continue to fund Corinthian Colleges when they knew... — read more
Struggling faculty = poor quality education
We teach not to get rich. We knew this going in. We know this moving forward. We had hopes that zenith would do the right thing for the students this has not happened it's all a dog and pony show. Zenith does not care about faculty which means zenith... — read more
This should be repeated over and over. Press should be looking into this!!!!!!!
The entire venture is being underwritten by the Dept. of Ed. using tax dollars. ECMC has over FIVE BILLION DOLLARS of American tax dollars sitting in an account set up by the DOE. Go back and read the AP article on how the Student Loan Guarantor... — read more

Offensive words from a Manager of Strategic Initiative
The Zenith Education Group seems like a good organization helping establish careers without prejudice. However I had Manager of Strategic Initiatives in MN today tell me "F-- You" over my opinion and political stance that was not his own. Though not... — read more
Corrupt Clinton-Podesta Democrats gone!
Now that the Clinton-Podesta Democrats are gone from power, maybe the Feds will start investigations into the relationship with Everest and shut down the Democrat money machine. It seemed to be just a Democrat contribution money generating school for... — read more
2017 Requirement for Continued Employment
Starting January 1, 2017 all employees of Zenith Education MUST be registered Democrat and are forbidden to vote for any Republican. I have gotten word through classified email that some of our employees have or are considering voting for a... — read more
Seriously DO NOT UNDERSTAND how a company stays in business losing students and NEVER making revenue budget......sounds fishy to me.

Thanks zenith for the college opportunity during work hours.
EMPLOYEE
WORKING FOR EUO FOR THE LAST 5 YRS HAS BEEN A STRAIN ON MY LEVEL OF HUMILITY. WE HAVE BEEN ASKED TO PUMP STUDENTS BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY TO MEET QUOTA FOR ENROLLMENT PURPOSES. WE CONSTANTLY GET PROMSED RAISES AND BONUSES BUT I HAVE NOT MET ANYONE IN... — read more
Nevada Campus Breaks ground on new program build out?
Rumor has it that the Nevada campus is under construction for new programs to be added. Can anyone confirm?
Fools
You are all fools. ECMC and Zenith is a joke. They are nothing more than an extension of the government. They will bleed you dry. So get this, Zenith will be sending out letters to inform you of your loss of benefits. PTO, that's right, you will... — read more
You have lost focus, which I'm sure is why the kool-aid group goes on here.
The focus is the fact that the school charges money for a worthless diploma, worthless classes and just pushes stupid people through who don't want to do the real work in a real college to succeed in life. Then everyone gets excited that they can't... — read more

The Podesta Group Had a Say in RIFS
Nearly all the employees who've lost their jobs since ECMC took over are registered Republicans. It seems that when it was time for downsizing the employees people that were registered Republicans were chosen to be let go before the registered... — read more
Why are you still working at Everest?
I worked at EUO for a couple of years after I graduated from college. At the time, I thought I had landed a good job in the field of education. I thought I would be helping our students earn a college degree and make a positive impact on their lives... — read more
Why Everest should close
The scam is not that they are a college and get government money, the scam is that their degrees and classes are worthless. They can't transfer credits, no employer gives them any credibility, they don't seem to be good for getting any jobs in the... — read more
ECMC and Zenith do NOT care about students. They are only in business to make lots of money for the CEO and the trustees.
Employees just got an email from Chairman of the Board John DePodesta. This newly released article obviously has him shaking in his boots. For those employees who think we are helping or even providing a service to our students, get your head out of... — read more
Believe whatever you want to, but I credit Camden Kid for his role in bringing a level of accountability to career education.
Camden Kid has not given up, and until the schools start providing a honest value for the tuition, I suspect he'll keep fighting the good fight.
