I. Introduction The State Board Career Colleges and Schools ( Board ) was created by the Ohio Legislature in 1970. In 1989, significant legislative changes gave the Board more regulatory authority over career colleges and schools (private, for-profit, postsecondary) in Ohio. It also changed the composition of the Board to include more representatives from the public and it increased the number and responsibilities of its field staff. In recent years, increased oversight by the Board, as well as by national accrediting agencies and the United States Department of Education, has resulted in many changes to the career school industry. These changes resulted in a reduction of schools registered with the Board during the period 1988-1993. However, the number of registered schools began increasing again after 1999. Those numbers are reflected in Chart 1 below. Chart 1 Number of Registered Schools Number of Schools 325 300 275 250 225 200 175 150 125 100 219 234 224 218 242 252 261 265 270 285 282 279 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Year In addition to an increase in the number of schools, the number of enrolled students has also increased steadily over the last 6 years as illustrated by Table 1 below. Table 1: Total Number of Ohio Students Attending Ohio Career Colleges and Schools Students 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Total Students 42,478 48,656 50,661 55,861 59,016 61,629 63,453 3

II. General Information about the State Board of Career Colleges and Schools A. Board Responsibilities The Board s general responsibilities include: 1. Maintaining the viability of registered schools through oversight of their programs and curricula along with their business practices, including advertising and recruiting. 2. Monitoring schools that provide educational and related services to a population of students who might not be served in the non-profit or public sector. 3. Protecting reputable schools from unfair competitive practices of unscrupulous school operators and their representatives. 4. Protecting the investment of students who have paid for education and training services. 5. Protecting the citizens of Ohio from fraudulent and unscrupulous school operators and their representatives. In carrying out these responsibilities, the Board s goals are to offer help, encouragement, and guidance to registered schools so that those Ohioans who choose them will be assured of quality education and training. In that process, the Board strives to uniformly deliver a consistent, fair, and equitable administration of its responsibilities in order to encourage maximum performance, which leads to gainful employment or career enhancement for each graduate of an Ohio career school. This Annual Report is testimony to the positive impact of Ohio s career colleges and schools. The Board is proud of its role in the regulation of this important post-secondary sector. It feels strongly that, with their continued cooperation, Ohioans can remain assured that their investment in a career college or school is one on which they can depend. 4

B. The Board Structure The organizational structure and composition of the Board is established by Section 3332.03 of the Ohio Revised Code, and the membership consists of the following: 1. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction or an Assistant Superintendent designated by the Superintendent; During Fiscal Year ( FY ) 2007, Dr. Steven Puckett, Assistant Superintendent for the Ohio Department of Education, served in this capacity. 2. The Chancellor of the Ohio Board of Regents or a Vice Chancellor designated by the Chancellor; $ During FY 2007, Dr. Garrison Walters, Vice Chancellor of the Ohio Board of Regents, served in this capacity. 3. Six members appointed by the Governor, with the advice and consent of the Senate, including: a. Three of the members must be representatives from vocational and technical schools: $ During FY 2007, Mr. Charles Kramer of Educational Management Services, Inc, Mr. Ken Miller of Trumbull Business College, Mr. Neil Collins of Hondros College (term expired 11/2006), and Mr. Dennis Bartels of Bradford College (appointed 1/2007) served as appointed school representatives. b. Two public members without affiliation to regulated schools; $ During FY 2007 Ms. Linda Hanaway from Dayton, and Dr. Kenneth Searfoss from Toledo, served as the Board's public members. c. One non-voting member who has graduated from a regulated school with a Baccalaureate or an Associate Degree, during the past five years. $ During FY 2007, this position was vacant. 5

C. Board Statutory Responsibilities Ohio Revised Code Sections 3332.01 through 3332.15 require that the Board: 1. Establish minimum standards for the regulation and operation of registered schools, including but not necessarily limited to standards to insure school financial stability. 2. Issue certificates of registration and program authorization to registered schools. 3. Suspend or revoke the certificates of registration or program authorization under certain conditions. 4. Establish minimum standards for certificate, diploma, and degree programs offered by registered schools. 5. Grant permits to agents and/or suspend or revoke an agent s permit. 6. Establish minimum standards for agents, including a code of ethics. 7. Monitor recruitment and admission practices of schools to ensure compliance with the law and the rules of the Board. 8. Adopt rules requiring all schools to provide applicant students, prior to signing an enrollment agreement, written information concerning obligations on the part of any student obtaining a grant or loan, the school s placement rates for each of the preceding three years, and other information the Board deems pertinent. 9. Adopt a rule requiring all schools to include, in the enrollment agreement, notice that the student may direct any problems he/she is having with the school, or complaints he/she has about the school, to the Board. 10. Adopt a rule requiring a uniform tuition refund policy. 11. Adopt a rule establishing minimum standards for all faculty and instructional staff in all instructional programs at a school. 12. Report annually to the Governor and General Assembly on the activities of the Board and career colleges and schools and make legislative recommendations when necessary to enable the Board to better serve the student population and the schools registered with the Board. 6

III. Overview of Significant Board Activities for Fiscal Year 2007 During Fiscal Year 2007, the State Board of Career Colleges and Schools continued to move forward with many of the initiatives contained in the Board s five year strategic plan. Some of the significant changes and other activities that took place during FY 2007 included: School Oversight The Board and its staff continued to carry out its statutory oversight duties by taking the following actions during FY 2007:! Issued 1003 Agent Permits! Approved 34 New Schools! Approved 356 New Program, Degrees and Majors! Renewed 136 Schools! Renewed 777 Programs and Degrees! Approved 40 Learning Centers! Approved 39 Program Name Changes and Revisions! Approved 39 New School Directors Many of these Board actions required on-site visits by consultants and staff and, as a result, the Board s staff and consultants made over 275 site visits to various schools throughout the state during FY 2007. Biennium Budget The Board s FY 2008-2009 budget request for the biennium that began July 1, 2007 was originally submitted in October, 2006. The Board s budget request was included in Governor Strickland s budget and was approved by both the House and the Senate. No changes were made to the Board s budget as it was first proposed in the Governor s initial budget request. The Board s budget for Fiscal Year 2008 that began July 1, 2007 is $552,300. This represents a 8.6% increase from the Board s FY 2007 appropriation. The Board s FY 2009 appropriation is $572,700, representing 3.7% increase from FY 2008. 7

IV. Data Analysis for Fiscal Year 2007 Contained below is a report and analysis of the data accumulated by the Board for Fiscal Year 2007. This information is presented in an attempt to accurately track the activities of the Board as well as the activities of the schools registered by the Board. The cumulative school data has been compiled from an analysis of the annual reports submitted by each school registered by the Board. A. Registered Schools During FY 2007 there were 279 schools registered with the Board. In addition, the Board registered 40 learning centers. These numbers can be compared with previous years in Table 2 below. TABLE 2: Total Number of Registered Schools Fiscal Year Number of Schools Number of Learning Centers 1999 218 8 2000 242 11 2001 252 20 2002 261 20 2003 265 22 2004 270 24 2005 285 33 2006 282 35 2007 279 40 Of the 279 institutions registered with the State Board during FY 2007, 145 were accredited by accrediting agencies recognized by the United States Department of Education. The following table is a breakdown of these accredited schools, and their accrediting agency. TABLE 3: Accredited Schools Number of Schools ACCSCT ACICS ABHES REGIONAL DETC ACCET 64 57 7 5 4 8 8

B. School and College Programs and Student Enrollment Pursuant to Ohio Administrative Code Section 3332-1-16, the schools and colleges regulated by the Board offer four types of registered instructional programs that can range in length from a few days to over four years: 1. Certificate Program means generally one or more technical courses usually completed in one to twenty-six weeks, normally with a single skill objective. 2. Diploma Program means a program of instruction offering technical and basic course work. The program generally ranges in length from six hundred to fifteen hundred clock hours; or more than forty but less than ninety quarter credit hours; or more than twenty-seven but less than sixty semester hours. 3. Associate Degree Program means a group of technical, basic, and general education courses which full-time students may complete in a minimum of two academic years, six to eight academic quarters, or four semesters. 4. Advanced Degree Program means a program of instruction at the baccalaureate, masters or doctorate level of instruction that is approved by the Ohio Board of Regents pursuant to Ohio Revised Code Section 3332.05. During FY 2007, Ohio s career colleges and schools offered a total of 1,306 programs. A breakdown of those programs is contained in Table 4 below. TABLE 4: Programs Offered by Ohio Career Colleges and Schools Programs 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Advanced Degree Associate Degree 42 44 1 1 1 1 0 258 250 289 316 383 397 422 Diploma 238 259 345 346 385 446 350 Certificate 334 399 469 491 549 488 534 Total Programs 872 952 1,104 1,154 1,318 1,332 1,306 9

In addition to Ohio based schools, the Board also registers approximately 50 schools that are located out-of-state, but that have registered agents recruiting in Ohio. Table 5 below lists the number of programs (1,658) offered by both in-state and registered out-of-state schools. TABLE 5: FY 2007 Programs Offered by All Registered Colleges and Schools Programs In-State Out-of-State Total Degree Level 398 256 654 Diploma 350 159 509 Certificate 422 73 495 Total Programs 1,306 471 1,658 During FY 2007, registered career colleges and schools enrolled 68,783 students in programs approved by the Board. Table 6 shows a breakdown of students enrolled at each program level.

C. Placement Placement statistics compiled in this report indicate that 83% of the individuals who complete their education find employment following their graduation. Ohio s career colleges and schools have been of great assistance in helping unemployed adults to find jobs. Some of the schools work closely with government agencies like WIA and Vocational Rehabilitation, and in some cases, employers, to assist in paying the cost of these training programs. Through this effort, career colleges and schools are removing some people from public assistance and once again making them taxpayers. The following table indicates the general placement activities of the schools registered with the State Board of Career Colleges and Schools. TABLE 8: Ohio Placement Type of Program Degree Programs Diploma Programs Certificate Programs Total All Programs Total Number of Students 29,513 22,364 11,576 63,453 Completions 4,649 6,932 8,285 19,866 Employed Related 2,994 4,873 4,010 11,877 Employed Un-Related 245 258 342 845 Not Employed 721 950 883 2,554 Not Available for Placement 689 851 3,050 4,590 Placement Rate 82% 84% 83% 83% 11

D. School Employees Another part of the economic impact of registered schools is the employment the schools provide for Ohioans. During FY 2007, career colleges and schools provided employment for 5,882 Ohio residents with total wages of over $139,000,000. School employees can be categorized as Administrative, Faculty, Professional, and Other (general support staff). The following table provides a picture of employees that are employed to operate and teach in the schools that are registered with the State Board of Career Colleges and Schools. TABLE 9: FY 2007 School Employees Full-Time Employees Part-Time Employees Admin. 582 Admin. 65 Instructional 903 Instructional 2,255 Professional 926 Professional 94 Agent 476 Agent 58 Other 271 Other 252 TOTAL 3,158 TOTAL 2,724 12

E. Economic Impact on Ohio Ohio s 279 registered career colleges and schools provided education and training to 63,453 students during FY 2007. Nearly 20,000 students graduated during the period. The schools are a positive, economic asset to the State, both as businesses and as educational institutions for several reasons. First, career college and school graduates make a continuing contribution to the economy because of their improved productivity. Graduates of these institutions have higher personal incomes and pay more taxes. Second, career colleges and schools are businesses that pay salaries, buy goods and services from other businesses and pay taxes to the local, state and federal government. The well-established model developed by the American Council on Education indicates that, for colleges and universities, every dollar in total operating expenditures generates approximately $1.20 of local economic activity after taking a "multiplier" of expenditure cycles into account. 1 Using this calculation we can estimate that career colleges and schools in Ohio generated more than $400 million of local economic activity during FY 2007. We can also estimate using these same calculations that these schools contributed more than $33 million as institutions in taxes to support the local, state, and federal government. (This figure excludes income taxes paid by employees on their salaries.) Finally, using calculations derived from a recent economic study of private schools in California, we can estimate the total additional education costs that Ohio would incur if career colleges and schools did not exist and other public and private institutions were forced to absorb the students currently attending these schools. Using the calculations from the California study, we estimate that it would have been necessary for the state to appropriate an additional $66 million for higher education during FY 2007 to cover the costs of educating students currently attending Ohio s career colleges and schools. 1 See Hodgin, Robert "Estimating the Impact of a College or University on the Local Economy". American Council on Education, October 1990. 13

V. Fiscal Analysis of Board Activities A. Revenue and Expenditures The Board s revenue is generated from fee schedules adopted and approved by the Board. The following table shows a five-year comparison of revenue and expenditures. TABLE 10 Fiscal Year 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Earned Revenue $266,088 $288,689 $576,617 $628,287 $568,819 $686,624 Expenditures $378,288 $363,434 $394,834 $415,728 $481,829 $494,724 State GRF Contribution $112,200 $74,745 0 0 0 0 GRF Funds 30% 20% 0% 0% 0% 0% Excess Revenue Board Revenue N/A N/A 181,783 212,559 86,990 191,900 70% 80% 100% 100% 100% 100% As Table 10 shows, Board fee revenue beginning in FY 2004 was significantly higher than previous fiscal years. This revenue growth was the result of increased school activity coupled with a fee increase that was effective July 1, 2003. In addition, following a statutory change that was effective at the beginning of FY 2004, the Board no longer received GRF funding and became essentially self-funded. All Board revenue is now deposited in a rotary fund (the 4K9 fund) and all Board expenditures derive from that fund as well. The following Chart shows a breakdown of the $686,624 of revenue generated by the Board during FY 2007: Chart 2 FY 2007 Board Fee Revenue $417,375 $11,499 $126,000 $131,750 Agent Fees School Fees Program Fees Misc.

VI. Division of Investigation and School Compliance The following report is intended to provide an overview of investigative activity initiated by the Division of Investigation and School Compliance during FY 2007. The report contains statistical data regarding the volume of complaints and an outline of public action taken by the State Board of Career Colleges and Schools. Complaints are broken down as follows: 1. Student Complaints 2. Non-Registered Schools 3. Investigative Inquiries In addition to these categories, the Division of Investigation and School Compliance, is also responsible for public information requests and assisting in responding to general correspondence and other inquiries received by the Board. The number of student complaints remained fairly consistent during the period from FY 2000-2005, however, the number of student complaints has increased the past two years. The increase in complaints in FY 2006 and 2007 can be attributed mainly to an increasing numbers of schools and programs. That number of student complaints for each year is listed in the chart below. Chart 3 Number of Student Complaints Numer of Complaints 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 69 44 54 42 39 48 32 31 37 43 40 29 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Year 15

A. FY 2007 Statistical Data During FY 2007, the Division of Investigation and School Compliance initiated a total of 83 cases, categorized as follows: TABLE 11 Fiscal Year 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Student Complaints Non-Registered Schools 39 48 37 43 40 69 54 11 32 13 11 16 19 12 Inquiries 56 21 9 25 31 13 17 Total 106 101 59 79 87 101 83 The number of student complaints decreased in FY 2007, however the nature of the complaints remained fairly constant and the complaints, for the most part, represented isolated problems between individual students and schools. Most complaints are normally resolved by achieving voluntary compliance from the schools. The nature of the student complaints, which were received in FY 2007, can be broken down into the following general headings: TABLE 12 Allegation Number of Complaints Poor quality of education 18 Failure to make a proper refund 8 Unfair school administrative policies 13 Financial aid problems 6 Involuntary dismissal issues 5 Admissions problems 4 16

The 12 non-registered schools that were reported in FY 2007 can be broken down as follows by programs offered: TABLE 13 Type of Program Number of Cases Modeling 3 Healthcare 4 Miscellaneous-Other 5 Inquiries, which are preliminary investigations initiated by the Board under the authority of Section 3332.09(D) of the Revised Code, but that are not student complaints, involve the following types of cases: TABLE 14 Nature of Complaint Number of Cases Advertising or recruitment issues 10 Other issues 7 For more detailed information about specific complaints, please contact the Board offices. 17

VII. Student Tuition Recovery Authority A. General Responsibility The Student Tuition Recovery Authority ("STRA") and the Student Tuition Recovery Fund ( STRF ) came into existence in 1991. The purpose of the Authority is to protect students of any school registered by the State Board of Career Colleges and Schools from tuition loss for the term as a result of a school closure. The STRA disburses monetary awards from the STRF to students who were enrolled in institutions that went out of business and did not return to those students their pre-paid tuition or provide a means of completing their program of instruction up to the amount of their pre-paid tuition. The STRA consists of five members (2 ex-officio): 1. The Executive Director of the State Board of Career Colleges and Schools; 2. The Executive Director of the Ohio Association of Career Colleges and Schools; 3. The Treasurer of the State or his/her designee; 4. The Chairman of the Senate Committee that primarily deals with education (ex-officio member); and 5. The Chairman of the Committee of the House of Representatives that primarily deals with education (ex-officio member). Each registered school is required to pay an annual assessment into the STRF, based on each school s prior year s gross tuition receipts. The State Board of Career Colleges and Schools has the responsibility to collect these funds and may pursue any lawful means of assuring that students of any school registered by the Board do not suffer tuition loss as a result of a business failure or other default of a school. B. Fiscal Year 2007 Activity During FY 2007, the STRA paid approved student claims in the amount of $12,442. The total balance contained in the Student Tuition Recovery Fund at the end of FY 2007 was $1,338,879. 18
