2.I.1 Complaint/Grievance Procedure

The purpose of the Learner Complaint Policy is to provide a process for learners to seek resolution of a dispute or complaint. Most issues can be resolved through discussion with faculty or a Success Advisor. Learners have the right to seek help or resolution if they feel that they have been unfairly treated based upon the policy and procedures of the University and were unable to resolve the situation. Learners must submit their complaint to the University Review Committee (URC) at urc@nexford.org, and should include the following information: 

• Thoroughly describe the complaint 
• Identify steps taken to resolve the issue 
• Provide any additional supporting documentation 

When complaints are received, by the URC, the Committee will investigate the complaint and render a decision to the learner within 5 business days of receiving the complaint. 

Grievance Policy 

In the unlikely event that the learner’s complaint was not resolved to their satisfaction, the learner should submit a grievance to the Chief Academic Officer (CAO) at grievance@nexford.org. The grievance should include all documentation and attempts to resolve the situation including the URC decision. The CAO will investigate the grievance and communicate with the appropriate learners and employees to address the problem as warranted. 

Resolution of the grievance will occur once the final response or outcome is determined. The learner who filed the grievance will be notified of the decision of the CAO. 

Complaints

CAO decisions are final. For issues that cannot be resolved directly with ��������, learners may file a complaint with the District of Columbia Office of the State Superintendent of Education, Higher Education Licensure Commission, following the instructions on its website, Office of the State Superintendent of Education or by telephone at 202-727-6436.
