Education Management Corporation was a U.S.-based provider of postsecondary education and career-training services. Through its education brands, the company offered certificate, diploma, associate, bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral programs in fields that included business, design, media arts, technology, healthcare, culinary arts and other professional disciplines.
Its principal institutions included The Art Institutes, Argosy University, Brown Mackie College and South University. Programs were delivered through campus-based and, in some cases, online formats, serving students across various locations in the United States. The company also operated continuing-education and career-focused programs intended to prepare students for employment in specialized fields.
Education Management Corporation filed for bankruptcy protection in 2015 amid financial and regulatory challenges. It subsequently restructured and divested portions of its education portfolio, including transactions involving several of its major school networks. The company is no longer the active education operator it once was, and reliable information about current operations or leadership is limited.
