The news comes on the heels of Corinthian's recent announcement of its planned purchase of Heald Capital LLC, the parent company of Heald College, for $395 million. When the acquisition is finished, Corinthian expects Heald to create added growth in the second half of its fiscal 2010 year.
The company also believes its student population will continue to increase because of a number of efforts. Among them: beginning new courses at existing campuses, online enrollment and facility expansion.
Corinthian Colleges is among the largest post-secondary education firms in North America. The school offers diploma programs, associates, bachelor's and master's degrees in areas such as health care, business, information technology and criminal justice. << PREVIOUS PAGE
