Q: Went to Computer Systems Institute, IL. Did not receive both certs, job placement, etc. Do I have a suit against them?
They recently lost financing from the government. Did not receive proper training or promised education. Did not receive job placement. Just want to know if CIS can be held accountable for the repayment of the government student loan for failure to follow through on their end of a contract.
A:
If your educational institution obligated itself to give proper training and deliver job placement, but did neither, then yes, you have a case. Of course, it is highly unlikely that the educational institution would put such obligations in writing. It is far more likely that you would have to prove your case by presenting facts in a demand and perhaps eventually at trial. Even so, it would also not be a surprise if your institution attempted to settle after knowing you are serious - and that may ultimately be your best option. In any case, speak with an Attorney and find out more about your options.
I hope this information was helpful. Best of luck.
