Career Education Corporation Announces Realignment of Resources

  Share This Story

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Career Education Corporation (NASDAQ: CECO) today announced the creation of the Shared Services Group to further leverage the company's size and optimize functional expertise in the delivery of quality education and student outcomes. This realignment of resources will aid in driving greater consistency, efficiency and effectiveness in common services across the organization. The group will report to Mike Graham, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

As part of the realignment, Career Education Corporation will reorganize its University Strategic Business Unit (SBU). A number of the services currently provided by the University SBU to American InterContinental University (AIU), Colorado Technical University (CTU) and the Art & Design institutions will be delivered by the Shared Services Group in accordance with existing service agreements.

The creation of a broader, enterprise-wide Shared Services Group, performing many of the same services centralized under the University SBU, provides the opportunity to remove a layer of management in the University SBU and enables Gary E. McCullough, President and Chief Executive Officer, to work more closely with the individual leaders of the institutions that comprised the University SBU. As a result, Deborah Lenart, Senior Vice President, University SBU, will leave the company.

These changes are consistent with Career Education Corporation's goal of continuing to manage costs while simultaneously investing in key areas to support achievement of its long-term objectives.
