Greetings!
First of all, a very happy 2019 from our team at HEG, and wishing that the new year brings tremendous joy and good luck for you and takes you to newer heights of success. I hope that you are recharged from the break and ready for the opportunities that the year will bring. Happy New Year 2019!
The new year brings news of a number of interesting acquisitions such as Cognita’s acquisition of Ardmore Language Schools’ highly noted junior summer program business, and National University System’s acquisition of the Point Loma-based online institution Northcentral University. Even the PAC 10 sports league may be on the market. Moreover, ISC shares that K-12 international student enrollment continues to increase.
Accordingly, I would like to welcome you once again to our 21st edition of our bi-weekly eZine, HEG’s Inner Circle Private School eNews, highlighting current industry news regarding private school investments, transactions, and related private education news relevant to you. In addition to our periodic email announcements highlighting our new listings, the latest school sales, and upcoming events we are attending, we have taken note of your interests and added our very brief, but informative bi-weekly eZine. Enjoy!!
