CONCERNS AND COMPLAINTS

It is highly unlikely that an HSI community member will encounter any problem that cannot be resolved through open, respectful and professional communication. However, if such a circumstance should arise, members of the HSI community may utilize the following procedure:

If a student, faculty or staff member has a complaint regarding a member of the HSI Community, it is the individual’s responsibility 1) to bring the issue to the attention of the individual(s) involved and attempt to resolve the problem, or 2) request assistance from the HSI Director or Student Advisor.

A complaint may be made to the HSI administration in writing (Mail to: HSI, 727 Sheridan Ave., Loveland, CO 80537). Written complaints must be signed, dated, and contain a clear description of the problem, its circumstances, and any attempts to resolve the conflict. A written complaint will receive a response from an HSI administrator within five days of its receipt.

When a complaint is received, the HSI Director or Student Advisor will propose a plan of action. In the event that the issue is still unresolved, the Board of Directors will make any final decisions concerning the matter.

If upon the school’s disposition of a legitimate student complaint, the student is not satisfied that the program has adhered to its policy or been fair in its handling of the complaint, the student may contact the State of Colorado.

Complaints may be filed online with the Division of Private Occupational Schools at www.highered.colorado.gov/dpos. The State of Colorado, Department of Higher Education, Division of Private Occupational Schools shall not consider any claim that is filed more than two years after the date the student discontinues his or her training at HSI.
