During the 2013 Association of Private Sector Colleges and Universities Convention and Exposition, Career College Central Editor Kevin Kuzma visited with a number of sector leaders at the magazine's booth space. This week, Career College Central shares an interview with longtime career education presence Stephen Friedheim, Strategic Coach at Education Systems & Solutions.

Friedheim is a great friend and contributor to Career College Central. He is a former President of the Association of Independent Colleges and Schools, the first chair of the Career College Association (now APSCU), and former President of ESS College of Business in Dallas. He provides consulting services with his wife, Jan, at Education Systems & Solutions in Dallas.

In this conversation, he shares his thoughts on the evolution of the APSCU convention and why career colleges are sometimes perceived negatively.
