This article today says that enrollments are "moderating", in layman's terms... slowing down: synonyms: die down, abate, let up, calm down, lessen, decrease, diminish. https://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/a/26888401/navitas-falls-on-slowing-growth/

Why employees hate SAE so much?
Dismal grades, dismal... http://www.glassdoor.com/Overview/Working-at-SAE-Institute-EI_IE286180.11,24.htm
Everything is down
Enrollments, Student Retention, Placement, Morale. Nun said.
Dropping like flies
There's still no faith that SAE is going in the right direction. So far, they have brought back the wrong person. I could name 3 people that they should have brought back! They've made more layoffs, but with obviously no game plan. There is no... — read more
Danger: They Don't Know What They Don't Know
What do you do when what's left of the management team does not know what it does not know? Ask Why, and you are told because Accreditation or the Department of Ed mandates it. Ask them to cite where it is stated in Accreditation or Department of Ed... — read more
SAE SUCKS
They could care less about their people. They get rid of those who have been loyal for YEARS. Thanks for your service, here's your last check.. good luck!
"Pay To Stay": Isn't this what Navitas got in trouble for... More to unravel
This article posted on CNN today shows a practice that several Navitas countries were illegally practicing. Crackdown to continue http://www.cnn.com/2015/03/11/us/gallery/feds-raid-0311/index.html
This company does not value its people
If you think you are valued, you are wrong. SAE Global/ Navitas will lay you off without real thought to what you have contributed for the time you are here. We have seen SAE wipe their hands off of people who had committed over 10 years of their... — read more
No more management
Is it me or does it seem like we have no management at all now?
What was the reason for the layoff this time???
And who is next ? FA? Marketing?
12/21 "Another Group Layoff"
I remember reading this before that someone forecasted another group layoff and to get it right, so far Will Winkowski, and I think a few academic people.
Group lay off today
3 people laid off from group today. Is there anyone left to run the ship?

ExPression is in limbo
We have gotten no direction, no communication, no support. This acquisition was by far the worst of ExPression's history.

What Positions are Open now
Does anyone know what openings we have right now beside the CEO? Is there now a COO position or are they going to put it all together? I know of people that could be a good fit but not sure what's going on.
Moving in the right direction
You all know why.
Compliance is back!
Finally some sense. Now if they would bring back Chris Davie, the call center manager and career services lady. There's no one who really does their jobs.
ExPression looking for Director of Education… after we canned good people
So I'm a little perturbed that our college is looking to hire a DOE and other positions when we just let go of quality people in September. WTF?
Academic Support... NOT
This is my first time here. I have to admit that I would peruse on here on occassion. Since Navitas/SAE Global have yet to develop a simple email adress or forum to submit concerns or grievances, I come here. Is it me or are the two guys at Group... — read more
Admissions Forecast Numbers are misrepresented
I have sat through a handful of our admissions calls and it's never quite accurate. There are on solid definitions to what is a lead, a start, an enrollment that people are just shouting out numbers that do not match the software not campusvue. Our... — read more
Losing students
Are any of the other campuses losing students still to the SAP policy? Are we addressing this yet?
SAE campus visits
Has anyone at SAE or Expressions had a campus visit from Joe, Rod or any of the Navitas people as promised or have you heard of when they might be at your campus?
Losing Macquarie resulted in $100ML rev lost, plus losing funds due to visa fraud .... This is why they refinanced the kian
The reason for the refinance of loan tesilting in an additional $125ML more debt is due to major loses in the past 6 months
Copying a post that I think should have its own thread. Whoever wrote it was spot on about Responsibility and Ethics
54891 - agreed that this is common practice. But isn't Navitas also responsible with how they manage their funds? There was obviously no oversight in the US which got out of hand and good people lost their jobs because of it. The layoff was not due... — read more
$400 Million in loans/ Debt

SAE Marketing
Pleass look into SEO ( search engine optimization). When I type in " SAE Institute" on Google, the old website still is up. It's probably the responsibility of SAE Global, but if you guys can let them know... That would be nice. Cheerio!
Article about "strong rises in North America for Navitas"

Group layoff
I can honestly say that I wouldn't mind seeing another layoff at the group level and high ups.... Those who have offices. This time, get it right.
Frustation - Those who are left at group don't know where anything is...
So when I ask for academic things, I get put on hold. When i ask about policies,.. put on hold. When I ask about financial aid.. i sometimes get an answer. They are more responsive in the sense that they at least say "I'll get back to you". But it... — read more
Bring back the HS program
Is there any discussion about some how bringing back the HS Ambassadors? We may not need 2 per each campus, but we need something or all that we've done in the last year is a waste. Why not have an Admissions rep who enrolls also follow through with... — read more
