150 Years of Learning
Bryant & Stratton was founded 150 years ago to provide practical workplace
education. The requirements of the workplace have continuously evolved since
our founding and, as we transition from the industrial to the information age,
the evolution has accelerated. Keeping abreast of these contemporary needs
requires the college to continuously revise and enhance curriculum, modify
outcomes, and embrace or develop new teaching and learning methodologies.
For well over a century, Bryant & Stratton's fundamental mission has been to
provide individuals with skills that are immediately transferable to the
workplace and to help them develop in their careers. From Dr. J. C. Bryant's
Business Practice "learning lab" of the 1850's to the Active Learning of today,
and from early correspondence courses conducted via mail to online education
and training conducted via the Internet, Bryant & Stratton has evolved into an
educational institution poised for the 21st century, committed to the same
principles set forth by its founders.
While the words in the college's mission have changed over the years, the
fundamentals have remained constant: Bryant & Stratton is dedicated to career
education. Today's student is prepared not only for a career upon graduation,
but also for a continuum of career-focused learning.
