Massive student cheating is a major warning sign of potenential for-profit college acam. Why? If the Las Vegas Trade-school ignores complaints of student cheating then that conduct may be contrued as an admissionn that other areas need addressing.

Students and adults attending Las Vegas Trade collegs have certainly been impacted by for-profit college scams. Many percons may not even know if they have been scammed until they are deep in debt.

In choosing a Las Vegas Trade College, students and adults should know at least the basic history of for-profit college scams in the country, and local for-profit college scams in Las Vegas.

Brief History of Las Vegas Trade College Scandals

On Sept. 6, 2016, officials representing ITT Educational Services Inc., the parent company of ITT Technical Institute and Daniel Webster College, notified the U.S. Department of Education (ED) and the postsecondary education oversight bodies in the 38 states where they had operating locations that they intended to cease online and classroom-based instruction.

After months of sanctions and years of investigations and lawsuits, the for-profit ITT Educational Services finally announced that its decades-long scam had come to a final closing, and that all 138 campuses would be closed.

ITT Educational Services had been milking students and had been a for-profit career college operator for at least 50 years.

The closure of ITT affected more than 40,000 students and 8,000 employees. The worthless certificates, and units of attendance were not tranferable to ANY Division I school. Employees and students had to scramble for alternatives.

In December 2016, DeVry University and its parent company agreed to a $100 million settlement of a Federal Trade Commission lawsuit alleging that they misled prospective students with ads that touted high employment success rates and income levels upon graduation. The FTC settlement secures significant financial redress for tens of thousands of students harmed by DeVry’s conduct.

DeVry University is a for-profit college based in the United States. The school was founded in 1931 by Herman A. DeVry as DeForest Training School and officially became DeVry University in 2002. As of 31 March 2018, DeVry reported an undergraduate enrollment of 17,936 and a graduate school enrollment of 7,299, and at least 25,235 students.

In December of 2018, local Las Vegas Instructors, students awoke to the news that Bightwood College was shutting down. No notice was given to the students.

Many of the students of Bightwood College and their Instructors transferred to other Nevada Career Institute Colleges. For example, students at Nevada Career Institute college on 3231 Noerh Decatur Blvd. report that some of their insstrucors and students have ties to Brightwood Career College, , and that poorly-trained instructors of failed schools were later hired by Campus Director Mary Ann Jefferson.
