Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Business Segments
BUSINESS SEGMENTS
Basis of Presentation.  The Company’s organizational structure is based on a number of factors that management uses to evaluate, view and run its business operations, which include, but are not limited to, customers, the nature of products and services and use of resources. The business segments disclosed in the Consolidated Financial Statements are based on this organizational structure and information reviewed by the Company’s management to evaluate the business segment results. The Company has six reportable segments: Kaplan International, KHE, KTP, Professional (U.S.), television broadcasting and healthcare.
The Company evaluates segment performance based on operating income before amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets. The accounting policies at the segments are the same as described in Note 2. In computing income from operations by segment, the effects of equity in earnings (losses) of affiliates, interest income, interest expense, non-operating pension and postretirement benefit income, other non-operating income and expense items and income taxes are not included. Intersegment sales are not material.
Identifiable assets by segment are those assets used in the Company’s operations in each business segment. The Prepaid Pension cost is not included in identifiable assets by segment. Investments in marketable equity securities are discussed in Note 4.  
Education.  Education products and services are provided by Kaplan, Inc. Kaplan International includes professional training and postsecondary education businesses largely outside the United States, as well as English-language programs. Prior to the KU Transaction closing on March 22, 2018, KHE included Kaplan’s domestic postsecondary education business, made up of fixed-facility colleges and online postsecondary and career programs. Following the KU Transaction closing, KHE includes the results as a service provider to higher education institutions. KTP includes Kaplan’s standardized test preparation and new economy skills training programs. Professional (U.S.) includes the domestic professional training and other continuing education businesses.
In recent years, Kaplan has formulated and implemented restructuring plans at its various businesses. There were no significant restructuring costs in 2018. Across all Kaplan businesses, restructuring costs of $9.1 million and $11.9 million were recorded in 2017 and 2016, respectively, as follows:
