Subsequent Events [Abstract]
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS	14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS During October 2013, we announced the teach out of five additional campuses, including three campuses within Health Education and two campuses within Design & Technology. We anticipate recording charges for these campuses of approximately $4.0 million related to asset impairment charges and severance and related costs during the fourth quarter of 2013. The results of operations for these five campuses and SBI White Plains, whose teach out was announced during the third quarter of 2013, will be reported within our Transitional Schools segment as of December 31, 2013. On October 22, 2013, the Company and one of its subsidiaries entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Insignis, a company controlled by funds managed by Apax Partners, pursuant to which the Company will sell and transfer control of its Paris-based INSEEC Group and the International University of Monaco. Through movement of cash from our international operations prior to the closure of the transaction, along with payment expected to be received at closing, we anticipate that our domestic cash position will increase by approximately $290.0 million. The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of anti-trust regulatory approvals in France, and the Purchase Agreement provides that closing is to occur no later than December 27, 2013. The Company expects to record a gain on sale related to this pending transaction of approximately $120.0 million – $130.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2013.
