Education Without Ethics

By ACS Distance Education on May 28, 2015 in Education | comments
Government recognised training providers are facing a strengthening tide of cynicism following what many consider highly unethical treatment of students.
Offering ‘immediate gratification’ rewards to vulnerable target markets such as young people, media reports suggest that some RTOs are:
1. Signing up students with the promise of ‘no upfront payments’ and government funding; 
2. Glossing over the fact that they are shackling them to many years of debt repayment 
3. Sending them out into a market that will not require the sub-standard qualifications they undertook. In this case, they would have no hope of reaching the earning threshold to being paying back their debt- hardly a clever move by the Australian Government.
