📖 Introduction

Aspen University is a United States-based private, for-profit, nationally accredited online university that was established in 1987. Aspen University has its origins in the International Academy, created in the 1960s to improve the way education was disseminated. The International Academy evolved into ISIM University, with a primary focus on technology and business education. In the late 1980s, operations moved to Colorado and in 1993, the University was successful in acquiring national accreditation with the Distance Education and Training Council, now the Distance Education Accrediting Commission (DEAC). In 2003, the University underwent a change in ownership, a name change to Aspen University, and a successful re-accreditation review.

Today, Aspen University offers online certificates, and online associate’s, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees in three schools: School of Nursing and Health Sciences, School of Business and Technology, and School of Education. The School of Arts and Sciences provides general education coursework in support of the other schools. It retains institutional accreditation with DEAC.
