Nimz Career College understands that there may be situations where students may feel dissatisfied and wish to lodge a complaint. In the event that a situation cannot be resolved with the appropriate individual there is a formal complaint process students may go through.

Should a student have a complaint or dispute in relation to their studies, instructor, program, staff, or other students they should submit a formal complaint as per the procedure outlined below.

The complaint must be filed with the appropriate party:

·         Academic (program, curriculum, instructor, schedule, etc.) – Academic Dean

Student complaints must be made in writing and provided to the appropriate party within 30 days of the incident occurring. Students should provide all details of the incident including a detailed description, the location, any person(s) who witnessed, etc. 

Once a complaint is made in writing, students may also make oral submissions and are entitled to have another person present throughout the complaint process and/or to make oral submissions on behalf of the student

Once a complaint is filed, Nimz Career College has 14 days to respond in writing, with a resolution identifying the decision, and including reasons that the decision is based on.
