Applying the Ethical Intent Matrix to For-Profit Institutions
Submitted by Paul Shuler on
After considerable research on the differences between fraudulent, substandard and good-standing educational institutions, the author created the Ethical Intent Matrix (EIM). The EIM is based upon three theories: ethical intent, public interest, and public choice. The author also created categories of actions that feed into the EIM to allow regulators and accreditors recognizable and supported means of categorizing educational institutions.
