Perdoceo Education Corporation PRDO

PRDO Company Overview

Perdoceo Education Corporation (NASDAQ: PRDO) is a U.S.-based postsecondary education provider focused on online and campus-based degree programs, professional education, and career-oriented training. The company operates primarily in the higher education industry and serves working adults, non-traditional students, and professionals seeking undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education credentials. Perdoceo generates most of its revenue through tuition and fees associated with academic programs offered by its accredited institutions, with additional revenue derived from educational services and student-related fees.

The company’s primary operating institutions are Colorado Technical University (CTU) and American InterContinental University System (AIUS), both of which emphasize online learning platforms and flexible scheduling formats. Perdoceo has evolved significantly from its earlier identity as Career Education Corporation, which historically operated a larger portfolio of campus-based career schools. Following regulatory scrutiny and strategic restructuring during the 2010s, the company divested several institutions, reduced physical campus exposure, and rebranded as Perdoceo Education Corporation in 2020 to reflect a narrower focus on technology-enabled higher education and student outcomes.
