Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]
Government Regulation And Financial Aid	Note 17 - Government Regulation and Financial Aid As discussed in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, our institutions participate in a range of government-sponsored student assistance programs. The most significant of these is the federal student aid programs administered by the ED pursuant to Title IV of the HEA, commonly referred to as the Title IV Programs. Generally, to participate in the Title IV Programs, an institution must be licensed or otherwise legally authorized to operate in the state where it is physically located, be accredited by an accreditor recognized by ED, be certified as an eligible institution by ED, offer at least one eligible program of education, and comply with other statutory and regulatory requirements. Each of our institutions holds the state or other authorizations required to operate and offer postsecondary education programs, and to recruit in the states in which it engages in recruiting activities. In addition, our institutions are accredited by ED-recognized accreditors: all of the UTI institutions and 13 of the Concorde institutions are accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges, while the remaining three Concorde institutions are accredited by the Council on Occupational Education. ED will certify an institution to participate in the Title IV programs only after the institution has demonstrated compliance with the HEA and ED’s extensive regulations regarding institutional eligibility. An institution must also demonstrate its compliance to ED on an ongoing basis. As of June 30, 2026, management believes the Company and its institutions are in compliance with the applicable regulations in all material respects. See “Part I, Item 1. Regulatory Environment” and “Part I, Item 1. State and Accreditor Approvals” in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a detailed discussion of the regulatory environment in which the Company operates. Because the Company operates in a highly regulated industry, it, like other industry participants, may be subject from time to time to investigations, claims of non-compliance, or lawsuits by governmental agencies or third parties, which allege statutory violations, regulatory infractions, or common law causes of action. There can be no assurance that regulatory agencies or third parties will not undertake investigations or make claims against the Company, or that such claims, if made, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.
