Dive Brief:

  • Woz U, the coding boot camp launched by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, could close after Arizona higher education regulators voted not to renew its license and denied an ownership change, the Arizona Republic reported. The school has until June 11 to request a hearing to contest the decision or it must cease operations in the state.
  • Concerns raised by the Arizona State Board for Private Postsecondary Education include Woz U’s relationship with Brent Richardson, former CEO of the embattled Dream Center Education Holdings (DCEH) and part-owner of Woz U. The board cited other ownership, administrative and financial concerns in its decision as well.
  • In a statement, the Scottsdale, Arizona-based school said the board “overlooked” its “many accomplishments” in helping build a technology workforce in Arizona. Woz U plans to appeal the decision, and the Republic reports Richardson said he would sell his ownership in Woz U.
