"The school is in decline, so job security is questionable at best."

What don't you like about working at United Education Institute?

"As expected from a for-profit school, their main concern is just that... profit. Due to issues with the Accreditation, most programs are not enrolling; the medical assisting program is dead. The CEO is too bust promoting and hiring Vice Presidents while instructors and staff are laid off or cut to part time."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Concentrate on quality instead of quantity, although the school's reputation may be too damaged to attract many more students. There are too many Vice Presidents and upper management making six-figures sinking the company, while the instructors and support staff are being gutted. Morale is non-existent among the staff... although upper management keeps its head in the sand and just says Onward and Upward! What a joke."

"This was a temporary assignment though an agency."

What do you like about working at United Education Institute?

"Counseling students for career readiness and developing work sites for them to receive hands on experience in for their respective trade."

What don't you like about working at United Education Institute?

"I didn't like being lambasted by three different bosses for students who no-showed their interviews with perspective employers. I set my students up to succeed. During the month of October I placed 13 out of 15 students with a job. The other two students both no-showed two different interviews and became uncommunicative."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"My suggestion to UEI Anaheim is to treat your staff better and with respect. It takes a lot of heart to be an externship coordinator. We build, cultivate and nuture relationships with students, employers and instructors. Celebrate the victories of your staff and learn to appreciate their hard work."
