CAREER SCHOOLS
ARE UNIQUE
Career Schools are an incredibly unique environment. Operationally, they must succeed as a business, and from a Human Capital standpoint, this means reducing “people-problem” expenses like turnover, while increasing the productivity of each employee. What is so unique is that Career School’s customers, the students, spend everyday with them. Rarely do you finds businesses where the customers are inside of the business. This coexistence is the reason that “people-problems” are compounded in a School. Employee turnover is visible and directly affects the student population. “People problems” can have an impact, then, not just on the business side, but on the student side as well. Not the right instructors in the classroom? What impact does that have on student retention?
Having strong fitting employees in all positions certainly has a positive impact on the School…imagine the positive impact on the students.

M. Muno Biography
Debbie
began her professional career at the age of
12 when she co-hosted a weekly children's television
show in Pittsburgh, PA called the Trolley Show.
Four years and 3 nationally syndicated shows
later, she continued on with high school and
competitive gymnastics, earning two consecutive
State Titles. In 1985 she entered Penn State
University, University Park, to pursue a major
in Broadcast Journalism and minor in Sociology,
and was a member of the Women's Gymnastics Team.
After
graduation in 1989, she began a Public Speaking
career with a two-year Career School in Pittsburgh.
She quickly moved into the Admissions Department,
and after six years as a successful Admissions
Representative, was promoted to the position
of Admissions Manager. It was in this position
that she began a search for assessment tools
that would enable her to identify and hire
top producers for her team. After finding
and using tools from Profiles International
for two years, she left her position at the
school and began an Assessment Distributorship
in Pittsburgh, PA. After three successful
years in Pittsburgh, she joined forces with
Jeff Summers, owner of an Assessment Distributorship
in the Midwest, and relocated the headquarters
to Tampa, FL in 2001.
Muno,
Summers & Associates has assessment clients
throughout the United States and Canada. They
have enabled schools and organizations of
all sizes to RECRUIT top performers, RETAIN
top producers and strategically fill their
companies with the RIGHT people. Understanding
the unique personnel challenges that the Career
School Industry faces, Debbie has combined
her 9 years of career school experience and
her knowledge of assessments, and is now focusing
on Career Schools. Employees are a School's
greatest assets. The ability to hire, manage
and promote employees so that their strengths
are matched with the school's positions is
paramount in maximizing a School's effectiveness.
Muno, Summers and Associates enables companies
to RECRUIT and RETAIN top performers.
