Collection Agency for Trade Schools
Professional Debt Recovery for Vocational and Technical Education Providers
Trade schools provide hands-on training that helps students launch careers in fields like healthcare, construction, HVAC, cosmetology, and the skilled trades. But when tuition payments or financing agreements go unpaid, it puts pressure on your school’s operations, staffing, and ability to serve new students.
At Payment Resolution Partners, we specialize in professional, student-sensitive debt collection for trade schools. Whether your institution is privately funded or receives financial aid support, we help you recover past-due tuition and training fees without damaging your reputation or student relationships.

Why Trade Schools Trust Us to Collect What They’re Owed
We Understand Vocational School Billing
Trade schools often use hybrid billing models: upfront tuition, monthly payments, financing plans, or third-party loan servicing. We navigate these structures to recover what you’re owed while staying compliant with federal and state regulations.
We Protect Your School’s Image
A strong reputation is critical for enrollment. Our outreach is respectful, discreet, and focused on resolution—not harassment—so your school stays in good standing with current students and alumni.
We Balance Firmness with Student Sensitivity
Many students miss payments due to temporary hardships—not intent. We tailor our tone to encourage cooperation while still firmly pursuing recovery.
We Stay Fully Compliant and Ethical
We operate under FDCPA, FCRA, and relevant education debt regulations. Every action is transparent, lawful, and designed to protect both your institution and your students.
The Collection Process: Tailored for Trade Schools
Step 1: Account Review and Planning
We begin with a secure review of unpaid tuition, student financing agreements, or institutional receivables—then build a customized collection plan based on amount, delinquency stage, and payment history.
Step 2: Respectful, Professional Outreach
We contact students or responsible parties through compliant, multi-channel communication—phone, email, and letters—while upholding your school’s brand integrity.
Step 3: Escalation if Needed
If payment is not made, we escalate responsibly. This may include credit reporting or legal referral, depending on your preferences and the account.
Step 4: Recovery and Reporting
We deliver real-time updates and clear reporting on recovery status. Funds are disbursed promptly, and your team can focus on education—not chasing payments.

Most Collection Agencies Don’t Understand Trade Schools… We Do!
Trade schools aren’t like traditional colleges or corporate vendors. You work closely with students who often face financial barriers. Aggressive collection tactics can harm your school’s reputation and future enrollments.
At Payment Resolution Partners, we treat your students with dignity while helping your school get paid. We work with trade schools across the country—from small private institutions to multi-campus networks—helping recover tuition, lab fees, and other overdue balances without compromising your mission.

Our Client Testimonials

Zach Bramble, MBA
BookSmarts Tax
“I was in a total stand still with a client who just wouldn’t pay. Every conversation became an argument and we were making no progress. PRP jumped in, kept it professional and helped everyone get back on track. In just a matter of days, they got the client to agree to a resolution and cut a check. Huge relief. If you find yourself in a position where you have a client who won’t pay and it’s turning into a mess, you want PRP on your side.“

Dov Ellenbogen, Partner
HiRelations
“After providing three months of marketing services, our client underwent an acquisition and our main contact left the company. During the transition, our payment was overlooked and all communication stopped. PRP brought them back to the table and secured the full payment. We highly recommend them to anyone having difficulty collecting a payment, even in complex situations.“

Josh P., Owner
Cutting Tools Industry
“Really enjoyed working with Payment Resolution Partners. I had never worked with a collections company before, but they were polite, professional, and helped us recoup a good amount of money from a customer that had not paid their invoice for 18 months. The cost for their service was very fair, they communicated well through the entire process, and they will certainly be our “first stop” for future collection issues.“

John Tuck, Owner
Tuck Farms
“We had a customer who initially sent a check that got misplaced, then claimed he sent another one – but nothing ever arrived. After multiple follow-ups and a declined credit card, communication completely stopped. PRP was able to step in, get the customer talking again, and make paying our invoice a top priority. In a matter of weeks, they secured payment. I highly recommend PRP if you’re dealing with a non-responsive client and need results.”

Scott Sulllivan, Owner
Cascade Plumbing
“PRP helped us recover two difficult accounts, including one from a repeat customer who had always paid on time until suddenly going silent on a large invoice. They got the right people involved, and within days, the CEO personally reached out and issued full payment. The second was a new client with a bad track record of not paying vendors that we didn’t know about until it was too late. They hadn’t answered a single call or email in months, but PRP managed to recover the full amount – plus late fees. If you’re a plumbing company or any trade business struggling to collect, I highly recommend PRP. Great communication, relentless follow-up, and they get results.”
