This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because International Education is a relatively large system of for-profit colleges, and its CEO Fardad Fateri is a major player in the industry. Fateri was also an executive of Corinthian Colleges, the first major system of for-profit colleges to go bankrupt. In higher education in the US, for-profit colleges have gotten a large degree of scrutiny and their students are disproportionately burdened by student loan defaults.

References 9 and 10 in this article are websites dated 2020, but they are listed as having been access in 2021, which is impossible, and is obviously an error, likely caused by the digits 1 and 2 being interchanged, so the actual date may have been 2021.
