Altierus Career College is a postsecondary non-profit healthcare and trade school owned by ECMC Education. The school has campuses in Tampa, Florida; Norcross, Georgia; and Houston, Texas; and offers certificates and associate degrees. The school is nationally accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges.[1]

History

The schools were once part of Corinthian Colleges, a now defunct large for-profit college chain that collapsed in 2015. Educational Credit Management Corporation (ECMC) took over the schools in 2015 under the name Zenith Education and rebranded them as Alterius Career Colleges.[2] More than 20 Zenith campuses closed in 2017, leaving only three campuses in service. [3] As of April 2022, ECMC Group announced the remaining three campuses would be closing.[4]
