CECU Statement on Gainful Employment Final Rule

9/27/2023

Arlington, VA – Today, the U.S. Department of Education released its final Gainful Employment rule.

“Once again, the Department has rushed the process, overlooking critical issues, to hastily implement and weaponize a final Gainful Employment rule against for-profit institutions. The Department continues to put its thumb on the scale to circumvent established procedures and advance a partisan rule that fails to protect the vast majority of students,” said CECU’s President and CEO, Dr. Jason Altmire. “CECU has continually advocated for a rule that ensures the protection of all students and maintains equal accountability for public, private nonprofit, and for-profit institutions – an objective this rule does not achieve.”
