Education Management Corporation

Education Management Corporation (EDMC) was a for-profit organization that operated various colleges and vocational schools across the United States. It provided post-secondary education, focusing on career-oriented programs in fields like healthcare, business, and technology. EDMC aimed to offer practical training to prepare students for specific jobs. As a for-profit entity, its revenue mainly came from tuition fees paid by students, often funded by federal financial aid. In recent years, EDMC faced criticism and legal scrutiny over student outcomes and business practices. The company was acquired by a private equity firm in 2017 and later rebranded or absorbed into other educational entities.
