A compliance conference meeting and outlined list of eight errors. The OHE meet with Stone Academy for the compliance for the compliance conference on January 9, 2023. As a follow up and prior to making any decision to revoke the certificate of authorization for Stone Academy, OHE determine that a full audit was necessary to determine the scope of the problem and to identify a baseline for each student. Agreement was effective on January 27,2023, and after it was signed Stone Academy failed to comply with agreement and he audit was not conducted. Students were being taught by unqualified instructors and receiving invalid clinical experience, the students needs were not met when requesting more information in regards of the poor communication, lack of resources and disgraceful management by campus director Jenna H****** and Provost Dr. Erin W***** being that they were enrolling student while being aware of the unfair circumstances for the students. I would like to request further investigation and a full refund of the expenses listed above for the amount of with the receipts numbers.

      One of the worst low-key so-called educational facilities. It's not the student's faults they are so uneducated and inept, it is the people educating them. If you want to be a nurse go to a real college. This little fly by night Stone academy it's like shopping at the Dollar tree when you really need something from Macy's.... I have seen with my eyes how inept they are how uneducated they are to the point where I had to show them how to take a proper pulse on my son and the look on their face.. Like I taught them something new. They all need to be retested and credentialed and the educators need to be fired and fined in the school shut down. You get what you pay for.
