September 6, 201610 yr ITT Tech shuts down all its schools; students might get loans forgiven - LA Times 50 Years in the Education for Profit Business
September 6, 201610 yr I'm in the IT/Business Skills training space, and had heard this was going to be the likely outcome. Once they got banned from enrolling students using federal grants and loans back in late August, it was only going to be a matter of time. They brought it on themselves, sky high tuition, questionable recruiting, and poor programs. Good riddance.

Were they ill prepared for the workforce? I feel bad for the students caught in the middle. Looks ITT made a ton of money. Too bad they didn't use some of it to run a quality school. Greed will always get you eventually.

But I've heard plenty of issues about ITT grads in my travels, specifically that they aren't very prepared for real life work once they graduate. We do a lot of business filling in the training gaps that many IT grads have upon graduating.
