    Education

    Lets get something straight here. Anybody even a clerk can get an education online. What is really appalling is how Prummell stats he has two masters degrees when one of them was from IMPAC university. A NON-Accredicated institution that is closed now. Guess who else has their masters from IMPAC??? Captain Chandler! This is all BS. Get a real degree from a real college. Try USF, FSU, UF, UM, UNF, etc. A real university, not some knock off.

    Re: Education

    They would never last one semester at any of the above colleges. That is why they are stuck and work at CCSO. If they had the opportunity to make more money and actually go to a big department or even federal they would never stay at CCSO. They are stuck and can never do anything else because they invested too much time.

    Perhaps you should do your research. IMPAC was accredited and then lost it in 2008 when DETC revoked it. IMPAC closed soon after. The details why were never fully disclosed and the founder killed himself the following year.All the degrees earned by the students at IMPAC are still recognized as the University was accredited at the time they were earned. Why do you keep misrepresenting this? You people are so full of it.

    Re: Education

    IMPAC University develops both its academic curricula and training programs using the strictest standards of quality education and state-of-the-art business practices. The academic curriculum includes Masters Degrees in Business Administration, Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Development, and Management Information Systems, as well as certificate programs in Business Administration and Management Information Systems. IMPAC University is accredited by the DETC.DETC = distance education and training counsel

    THAT IS NOT EVEN A RECOGNIZED ACCREDITATION DIVISION. LOOK IT UP.

    Now this wanna be accreditation division only supports the following:

    WOW SOUNDS REALLY GREAT! NOTTTT! :devil:

    I would never recognize a university that was only open for what 9 years?

    LITCHFIELD, Conn. - James B. Irwin, who bought an international business consulting firm and relocated its headquarters to Punta Gorda nearly 20 years ago, took his own life Monday evening at his sprawling Connecticut farm.

    James Irwin

    State police were dispatched to Irwin's Thunder Ridge Farm about 5:30 p.m. on a report of someone threatening suicide.

    State troopers went into the house on the property and found a note and an open pistol case with the pistol missing. A short time later they heard two shots, and found Irwin in a chair in his gazebo suffering from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. Irwin was rushed to Charlotte Hungerford Hospital in Torrington, where he later died. Troopers recovered a Colt .38-caliber pistol at the scene.

    The state medical examiner Tuesday afternoon ruled his death a suicide.

    "We believe there is no criminal aspect to it," Lt. J. Paul Vance, a state police spokesman.

    Irwin, 73, was chairman of Integrated Control Systems, Inc., a Florida company known as IMPAC. The company filed for bankruptcy in 2004.

    In 1994, IMPAC built a $6 million, 55,000-square-foot headquarters and training facility on West Marion Avenue in Punta Gorda, overlooking Charlotte Harbor. It later started IMPAC University, a graduate business school.

    Irwin and his firm have over the years received publicity for funding a world's richest literary prize, seeking to block the reappointment of a Superior Court judge and hiring a famed defense attorney after he'd lost his law license.

    In May 1995, Irwin created the annual International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award to reward works of "high literary merit." At the time, the price was $162,000, or 100,000 Irish pounds.

    Re: Education

    Impac grads make up a who is who of swfl politicians in the area. They were a powerhouse when they operated and some big names in Charlotte, Sarsota, and Lee County all attended their programs. Do not talk about things you do not know. So in closing, all of you quit this message board.

    Re: Education

    Some body said that the DETC isn't recognized and to look it up. I did listed below is the Wikipedia entry for DETC. In short the DETC is recognized by the US department of Education and all three branches of the military. As such IMPAC was accredited until 2008. Stop spreading your BS.

    History

    The DETC was established in 1926 as the National Home Study Council (NHSC), a trade association for correspondence schools.[1][2] Its formation was in response to a Carnegie Corporation study that found a lack of standards to ensure quality in correspondence schools and protect their students and the public from fraud.[1] Under its first director, John Noffsinger, the NHSC developed a list of minimum standards for proprietary schools. The NHSC adopted its current name in 1994.[1]

    [edit] Accreditation

    In 1959 the NHSC was formally recognized by the U.S. Office of Education as an accreditor of higher education institutions. Currently the DETC is recognized by Council for Higher Education Accreditation and the United States Department of Education as an accreditor of institutions of higher education. According to DETC, it is made up of over 100 distance education institutions located in 21 states and 7 countries. These institutions include non-profit institutions, trade associations, for-profit companies, colleges and universities, and military organizations.[3]

    [edit] Comparison with regional accreditation

    DETC is a national accreditor and should not be confused with regional accreditation. The vast majority of all schools in the United States are regionally accredited from elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, and higher education institutions. Some regionally accredited schools accept and recognize the accreditations of nationally accredited schools, but others do not.[4][5] Michael Lambert, Chief Executive Officer of the DETC, says that about 70% of DETC graduates are successful in transferring credits. He also asserts that the "vast majority" of employers do view DETC as being equal, since DETC institutions are accepted for the tuition reimbursement programs in most corporations today.[6]

    The Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) offered an opinion in a November 2000 statement that, "Institutions and accreditors need to assure that transfer decisions are not made solely on the source of accreditation of a sending program or institution."[7] The Higher Education Transfer Alliance (HETA) online directory[8] was designed by DETC to help students and the public find educational institutions with transfer practices consistent with criteria articulated by CHEA in its Statement to the Community: Transfer and Public Interest.[9] According to CHEA, institutions that are members of HETA have agreed that their "transfer decisions are not made solely on the basis of the accredited status of a sending institution and that the institution has agreed at least to consider transfer requests from other institutions."[8] The HETA directory provides links to member institutions so that students and others can review a specific institution's transfer policies and practice.

    [edit] U.S. military accreditation

    The DETC provides accreditation for three branches of the United States military. The Air Force’s Air University, The Marine Corps Institute and the Army Institute for Professional Development (ATIC-SDL) are listed as degree-granting institutions with the DETC.[10]

    DETC not recognized? You're a lying sack of crap.

    Interesting thoughts ... I'm thinking about getting an education in sociology. I will look for institutions online. I wanted to study sociology because of the situation with regards to shooting at school or near a school in the United States happens very often. After all, schools and colleges would have to be protected from such attacks. Recently, I read the free essay samples on this page and learned many other nuances from other resources. For example, that the measures taken to protect students can sometimes even violate civil or human rights. So why is school shooting so easy until now?
