Arden University started out in 1990 as the chosen online learning partner for traditional universities across Britain and has been evolving since. The university was granted degree-awarding powers in 2014 and officially became Arden University one year later, which now offers more than 90 career-focused qualifications. Throughout this time, Arden has shown a commitment to providing flexible and accessible higher education to people from all walks of life, irrespective of their circumstances.
