Discontinued Operations And Disposal Groups [Abstract] |
Discontinued Operations | 17. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS As of December 31, 2017, the results of operations for campuses that have ceased operations prior to 2015 are presented within discontinued operations. Prior to January 1, 2015, our teach-out campuses met the criteria for discontinued operations upon completion of their teach-out as defined under FASB ASC Topic 205 – Presentation of Financial Statements. Commencing January 1, 2015, in accordance with the new guidance under ASC Topic 360, only campuses that meet the criteria of a strategic shift upon disposal will be classified within discontinued operations, among other criteria. Since the January 2015 effective date of the updated guidance within ASC Topic 360, we did not have any campuses that met the criteria to be considered a discontinued operation. Results of Discontinued Operations Combined summary results of operations for our discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 were as follows (dollars in thousands):
