Corporate Commerce - Corporate Commerce College

Recommendation: Upheld | Medium: Suo Motu - NAMS (TAMS)

In the absence of required action on or before the prescribed due date, CCC considered this complaint exparte. Claim, “100% Placements” and Voice over claim, “100% Job guarantee”, were not substantiated with authentic supporting data such as the batch size of students per year, detailed list of students and evidence to support their enrolment, contact details of students for verification, list of students who were placed through the advertiser’s college in relevant industry sectors on completion of their courses, their appointment letters, list of students who were not placed and the reason for their non-placement, nor any independent audit or verification certificate. Furthermore, the advertisement did not have any disclaimers to indicate “Past record is no guarantee of future job prospects” nor did it have a declaration of the total number of students placed out from the passed class. The claims are misleading by exaggeration and are likely to lead to widespread disappointment in the minds of students. This advertisement is in contravention of Chapter I, Clauses 1.1, 1.4 and 1.5 of the ASCI Code, and ASCI Guidelines for Advertising of Educational Institutions and Programs. Complaint was Upheld.
