Office of Private Occupational School Education

The Office of Private Occupational School Education is responsible for licensing proprietary schools in Massachusetts that qualify to offer post-secondary courses to train people for jobs in business, trade, technical, or industrial fields. The office also approves locations, curriculum, staff, and instructors to ensure schools adequately prepare students to apply for licenses in their fields and pass required exams. It also retains student records, investigates complaints, conducts inspections, and disciplines schools that don't follow the rules or operate without a license.
