All of the recent negative reviews are correct, due to the individual context. If you are part of Campus Care (Reno NV, or Salt Lake City, Utah), you have seen the cutthroat mentality from this profit motivated organization. The recent centralization has garnered removal of the "old guard" employees that were paid too much and know too much, to allow room for the hungry, desperate individuals, just trying to earn a living with an organization that they do not know has a non-altruistic underside. The most damaging part of this new centralization is the non-transparent mindset of the total disregard for the customer (the students). These unsuspecting clients do not know that they lulled into a false since of security of completing their educational goals in a fast-paced (5-week modules), with unlimited resources to help them expand their horizons. Nothing is further from this truth.
Students are enrolled, even if their individual learning style and skill set is not conducive to the pace of the academic model nor the online platform for most courses. The recent cost saving steps include removal of the on-ground library and library coordinator, executive assistants, and facility managers. There will be no more face-to-face tutoring, especially tutoring for Medical Assistants needing guidance to take their National Centers for Competency Test (NCCT) in order to become a Certified Medical Assistant (CMA). The students have to rely on over-worked instructors, with little time to tutor online-challenged students. And last but not least...the printing capabilities option has been removed. Students can no longer print out copies of assignments or chapters from books for those that still need a hard copy to study at home. Those students are going to have to get along with everything going virtual. Prospect Education is trying to mimic the learning management system environment of the famous University of Phoenix, but all they are really doing is propelling the students into a future of financial debt due to no help or resources during the fast-paced no help environment forced on the unsuspecting student. These students have a high probability of not getting a job, because they will not learn anything within this new no-help environment. This culture is more than the deplorable treatment to the staff and faculty, it is a sham to the students/customer and just as unethical as the Corinthian scandal, which comes from the top, i.e., the CEO and COO. Students and future employees..caveat emptor (beware the buyer).
