Business ProfileforEmpire Education Corp Mildred-Elley Education

My daughter completed and LNA training class at Mildred Elley in September/October of 2022. We paid all of the invoices that were received. In late April of 2024 Victor T***** left a message for ***** stating that she owed $560.61. According to him the person responsible for billing became ill and the school was just now able to send invoices. I did speak with Victor T***** briefly and explained that we never received anything in the US mail and that this seemed suspicious. He did send ***** an invoice, via email, that showed the charges and payments that were made. When speaking with him I suggested the invoice should be written off. They refused and then began calling ***** and threatening to send the invoice to collections. They took close to two years to send an invoice and then threatened collection after less than 30 days. I paid the invoice because of the threat of collections. During this time frame I left messages for the financial aid office so I could pay, and Mary (in the Albany location) never returned my calls. She would not speak to me because there was not a FERPA form signed. I do realize businesses have up to 6 years to send invoices, however, this is an irregular business practice. Victor T***** was also threatening and harassing.
