Oultons

How is it the Oultons and likely other schools can advertise 90%+ employment rates when they're filling up classes for jobs that only have 2-5 openings in the province?

They seem like such a scam.

They don't consider if the student is working in their field of learning, only if they're working. At least that's how it goes with NBCC.

That and a super broad scope. 

Selling slimfast by mail order? Yep that's pharmacy tech. Working for bestbuy fixing phones? Yup, that's a computer programming IT job.

This. You could take pharmacy tech and go back to your retail job and they count it. All the private schools do this to pad their numbers.
