Business is Booming at College
January 06, 2020
Anoka-Ramsey Community College has made noteworthy investments in the Business degree program to continue the commitment to provide a quality education and put student success first.
Global Accreditation
After a two-year process of meticulously evaluating the program’s leadership, strategic planning, stakeholder relationship, overall quality, faculty credentials and educational support, Anoka-Ramsey’s Business Management and Accounting program was awarded accreditation by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP).
ACBSP determined Anoka-Ramsey’s program to be a “hidden gem” in the community. This accreditation marks a commitment to continuous improvement for Anoka-Ramsey.
“Being awarded with accreditation is just a jumping off point for Anoka-Ramsey,” explained Anoka-Ramsey Dean Luanne Hogan. “The accreditation is an annual quality improvement process that we will need to work to maintain. It exemplifies our commitment to students obtaining a meaningful and valuable education, so they leave Anoka-Ramsey with the skills employers need and the growing economy demands.”
Expanded Bachelor’s Degree Partnerships
Beginning in fall 2019, Anoka-Ramsey Business students were offered a new opportunity to continue their education on campus.
In partnership with St. Cloud State University and the Herberger Business School, Anoka-Ramsey students can now earn a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in General Business with the option of a certificate in Professional Selling on the Coon Rapids Campus.
This partnership adds a second business option for students who already had the opportunity to receive a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in Business from Concordia University on the Cambridge Campus.
A recent Anoka-Ramsey graduate, Tamara Wolter took advantage of this partnership with Concordia. “I am a single mom with two children. My big goal right now is to finish my bachelor’s degree to provide financial security and land my dream job as an operations manager or logistical analyst. I will graduate with my Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in Business from Concordia in May 2021, and then I plan to take a vacation. I have not gone on vacation in 10 years.”
