CCST New Member Applicants/Renewals

The Career Colleges and Schools of Texas Board of Directors recently instituted policy and procedure changes to the renewal of Institution and Associate memberships as well as the review of new membership applications. These changes have been instituted in the spirit of ethical and compliant business practices to which all CCST member institutions aspire; and, to which CCST itself expresses in by-law, mission, vision and action.


Further, the review of all applicants by the Board of Directors will include a public call for comments regarding each applicant. A list of new and renewal applicants will be made public and a specific timeframe of ten days has been established for the Board to receive comments. Please see the school(s) listed below. Each applicant’s respective Regulatory Bodies and Accreditors will also be contacted by the Board seeking the applicant’s current status and standing with those organizations.


Please email Jennifer George at jgeorge@eami.com with any comments on any of the schools listed in the list below no later that July 9, 2009.
