See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kaplan for initial talk. mikka (t) 19:57, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
Out of five comments (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kaplan), one is in favour of status quo, and four would see 'Kaplan' moved to 'Kaplan Inc', with 'Kaplan' becoming the disambiguation page (including of course reference to 'Kaplan Inc'). I therefore intend to carry out such changes in the next twenty four hours (unless anyone cares to beat me to it). Happy New Year to all btw -

Was New York City founded in 1938 by Stanley Kaplan? 146.184.0.119 ( talk) 18:40, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for this - have made this edit. krb2182 11:41, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
I am removing the recently posted "Current Issues" section of this entry. This paragraph violates all three of Wikipedia's core content policies: WP:VERIFY, WP:NOR, and WP:NPOV. None of the claims in the paragraph have cited sources, and the editor is clearly biased against the company. This is even evident in the placement of the paragraph above all other relevant company information. The last sentence in particular ("It should be expected this continued attrition will significantly impact future corporate earnings.”) is a clear violation of WP:FUTURE.
krb2182 11:56, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
I would like to request some 3rd party assistance regarding the most recent addition made to the Kaplan Wiki entry. The editor has included information that appears to violate the Wikipedia policy of WP:NPOV (note also WP:UNDUE). krb2182 18:08, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
I feel that the article is over positive, and does not give enough information regarding the value of their accreditations. I feel that this would be very relevant to the reader. Also I think there should be a section on the massive number of complaints regarding apparently dubious billing practices. Any comments appreciated.
Shadowolf7 ( talk) 08:09, 26 February 2009 (UTC)Shadowolf7
From what I can find, dubious billing practices apply only to Kaplan University, not the test prep or other areas of the company. Agree that it may be an important aspect to be included in this section.
Emmgal8 ( talk) 16:17, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
I have created the additional copy for the Kaplan, Inc. page as an employee with a strong knowledge of the company. The copy that resided on the page before I first made these edits held a great deal of inaccurate and outdated information, which I attempted to correct. I also restructured the page to explain how the business is organized.
I was very careful to cite sources, pulling most of the information directly from the recent financial statements from our parent company, The Washington Post Company. I have made every effort to maintain a neutral point of view, and feel strongly that my entry did not read like an advertisement. The entry only included factual statements that could be backed up by numerous sources.
I feel strongly that the recent changes have been made by a biased editor who, rather than making constructive suggestions on how to improve the language, is simply reverting all changes. In doing so, he is reposting inaccurate information that I had previously corrected.
krb2182 18:54, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
I certainly did not revert all changes, as you can see from the history and specifically this diff. I did remove some good information, and I have reinserted it. Here are some changes I made, and why:
If there are further inaccuracies, please correct them. Λυδαcιτγ 01:09, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
You raised some good points above; thank you. I reinserted some of the facts about each of our businesses, all of which simply point out the size and scope of the company. Many company entries include such information. I have pulled everything directly from public documents, citing the source of each fact and always maintaining a neutral point of view. The information is encyclopedic in nature and is very important to researchers, particularly in the education industry. I have also included the section on Philanthropy, though I adjusted the language to eliminate a "promotional" tone. Again, many company entries on Wiki include such information. I have consistently maintained a neutral point of view and believe I addressed your concerns. Thank you for your input.

Kaplan University is a DBA (Doing Business As) name. See the reference cited. Until they change the name of the corporation, their legal name is Iowa College Acquisition Corporation. -- averagejoe ( talk) 16:42, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
The revenue figure of US $2.6 billion is correct; however would like to update the year from 2008 to 2009. The Revenue date should be updated to US $2.6 billion (2009) Source: [1]
The sentence that reads "Iowa College Acquisition Corporation, operating under the Kaplan University brand, also offers online programs, and had approximately 37,000 students in 2007.” should be changed to "Iowa College Acquisition Corporation, operating under the Kaplan University brand, also offers online programs, and had approximately 75,000 students in 2010.” Source: [2]
To accurately reflect our non-US businesses, the sentence which begins "Outside the United States..." needs to be updated to accurately reflect our breadth of services: "Outside the United States, Kaplan offers a number of higher education, professional training and English/pathways programs, including Dublin Business School in Ireland, which offers undergraduate and graduate degree programs in business and the liberal arts, and Kaplan Higher Education (formerly called Asia Pacific Management Institute) in Hong Kong and Singapore." Source: [3]
The sentence that reflects Kaplan's breadth outside of the US and Canada should be updated to "Outside of the United States and Canada, Kaplan operates in more than 30 countries, including the UK and France, and also operates Kidum, a test preparation company in Israel, and Kaplan International Colleges, a provider of English language training and pathway programs based in the U.K." Source: [4]
Crw wKaplan ( talk) 22:06, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
Hello, I'd also like to introduce myself to the Wikipedia community. Like Crw wKaplan, I work for Kaplan, Inc. and would like to propose some small changes to the "Kaplan Higher Education" section of this page.
First, the 75,000 students figure should be changed to 65,000 students. This updated figure is noted in the Washington Post Company's 2010 SEC filing annual report (source: [5]).
Second, we'd like to add the following few sentences after the sentence with the enrollment figure: "Kaplan University recently rolled out the Kaplan Commitment, which allows students to take classes for credit during an introductory period without any tuition obligation. If students decide the program is not right for them or if they do not succeed academically, they can leave the school without incurring any education-related debt or tuition charges. The Kaplan Commitment is available at all levels of study (certificate, associate’s, bachelor’s, and graduate degrees)." (source: [6]). -- MT wKaplan ( talk) 18:20, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
Hello, I’d like to make some changes to reflect updated financial numbers and major acquisitions.
The company’s revenue, located in the box in the upper-right corner of the page, should be changed to from $2.3 billion (2009) to $2.9 billion (2010). Our source for this is the Washington Post Company’s 2010 Annual Report, which is available at http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=62487&p=irol-reportsAnnual and can also be found under citation number 5 on the Kaplan, Inc. Wikipedia page.
Our Acquisitions section should be updated to include the following:
2007 – EduNeering Inc., a provider in compliance and knowledge management solutions. 2011 – Structuralia, a leading provider of training and education in Spain. 2011 – Carrick Education Group, a leading vocational and higher education provider in Australia. 2011 – Franklyn Scholar, a leading national provider of work-based vocational training in Australia.
These changes shouldn’t prove to be controversial, so I’d like to just go ahead and make them myself. If no objections, I’ll plan to make these changes by Oct. 3rd.
However, I would also like to revise some language around the “False Claims Act” section to accurately reflect the current status of lawsuits referred to in that section.
In the first paragraph of that section, we’d like to take the last three sentences out. The latest on that lawsuit is reflected in the text below, which we would like to propose as the new end to this first paragraph (see citation below):
On August 17, 2011, a US District Court judge dismissed with prejudice these allegations, finding that the former employees involved in this case had failed to sufficiently allege any violation of the False Claims Act. [CITATION - http://docs.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/florida/flsdce/1:2009cv20756/333112/262/]. The judge declined at this time to dismiss claims brought by two of the former employees under the accommodation provisions of the Rehabilitation Act and federal employment law, respectively. [SAME CITATION].
The second paragraph of the “False Claims Act” section should be removed entirely, as it is misleading. The Department of Justice has declined to intervene in any case against Kaplan, and the Chronicle of Higher Education article cited to back up this paragraph is factually inaccurate: the DoJ submitted its own view on how a statute of limitation should be construed, not that any “whistleblower” suit against Kaplan was well-taken or should be permitted to continue.
Thank you! MT wKaplan ( talk) 21:20, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
While back-handed, this was a complement. It prompted me to look at educational performance by students taking on-line courses. Here is one of the first results that I found: [http://www.aabri.com/manuscripts/11761.pdf predatory open access Research in Higher Education Journal "Success rates of online versus traditional college students"]. While not related to Kaplan per se, I offer it as a starting point for article/section development that discusses how well Kaplan (and other on-line/for-profit schools) does when actual data (vs. reputation) is examined. Given that this article has so many digits devoted to the non-empirical and isolated law suits, some academic analysis of Kaplan's achievements/non-achievements would be welcome.-- S.

was invoked but never defined (see the

I would like to erase or move these sentences, as they are about only a small part of Kaplan's global business and belong with the discussion of its US higher ed businesses if they belong anywhere.
I would like to refer editors to this link, which is the actual Department of Justice press release about the settlement that came about as a result of these allegations: http://www.justice.gov/usao-wdtx/pr/profit-college-kaplan-refund-federal-financial-aid-under-settlement-united-states
As you can see, the government's press release states, "Kaplan fully cooperated with the government’s investigation and negotiated the settlement in good faith, stated Acting U.S. Attorney Durbin. The settlement is not an admission of liability by Kaplan or its affiliates."
This would be useful context to add. No evidence of wrongdoing has been found, and Kaplan cooperated in good faith. I plan to erase the new sentences from the introductory paragraph next week.

Hello, I'd like to update the way Kaplan's subdivisions are laid out. The company is more accurately described as split into Higher Education, Test Preparation, and International. I will take language from the 2012 Annual Report of the Washington Post Company ( http://www.washpostco.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=62487&p=irol-sec) and use it to describe the three subdivisions.

There are updated figures for overall company revenue, as well as enrollment at each of Kaplan's subdivisions. I'd also like to shorten the Kaplan University section since Kaplan University has its own Wikipedia page and provides more comprehensive historical information.

Hello, I'm a Kaplan employee and I'd like to make updates to this page to reflect the latest figures from Graham Holdings Company's latest SEC filing, which can be found here: http://services.corporate-ir.net/SEC/Document.Service?id=P3VybD1hSFIwY0RvdkwyRndhUzUwWlc1cmQybDZZWEprTG1OdmJTOWtiM2R1Ykc5aFpDNXdhSEEvWVdOMGFXOXVQVkJFUmlacGNHRm5aVDB4TWpBNE1Ea3hNU1p6ZFdKemFXUTlOVGM9JnR5cGU9MiZmbj1HcmFoYW1Ib2xkaW5nc0NvbXBhbnlfMTBLXzIwMTgwMjIzLnBkZg==
There are updated figures for overall company revenue, as well as enrollment at each of Kaplan's subdivisions. I'd also like to shorten the Kaplan University section since Kaplan University has its own Wikipedia page and provides more comprehensive historical information.
