Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that all persons or
entities who purchased the common stock of Career Education
Corporation (“CECO” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:CECO) between January
1, 2009 and November 1, 2011, inclusive (the “Class Period”), have
until March 13, 2012 to move the Court to serve as Lead Plaintiff
in the securities fraud class action lawsuit filed in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.
CECO operates colleges, schools and universities that provide
educational services in career-oriented disciplines primarily in
the United States. The Complaint alleges that defendants
misrepresented or failed to disclose material adverse facts about
the Company’s business and financial condition, including that: (i)
defendants represented that CECO’s retention rates and employment,
or “placement” rates following graduation were higher than they
actually were; (ii) defendants failed to disclose that the
Company’s purported Placement rates were achieved through an
improper course of conduct and a manipulative use of the term
“employment”; (iii) the Company reported inflated placement rates
to the Accrediting Counsel for Independent Colleges and Schools,
the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges, and its
other accrediting agencies; and (iv), as a result of the foregoing,
defendants misrepresented the health and condition of the Company,
in particular its ability to continue to receive Title IV
Funding.
No class has yet been certified in the above action. Until a
class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you
retain one. If you purchased CECO common stock between January 1,
2009 and November 1, 2011, you have certain rights, and have until
March 13, 2012, to move for lead plaintiff status. To be a member
of the class you need not take any action at this time, and you may
retain counsel of your choice. If you wish to discuss this action
or have any questions concerning this Notice or your rights or
interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G.
