Herzing College
The Minneapolis campus was formed from two schools, the Minneapolis Drafting School and the Lakeland Medical Dental Academy. The Minneapolis Drafting School was founded in 1961 and established a reputation as a premier provider of highly skilled drafters in the Twin Cities area. In June of 2000, it became part of the Herzing Educational System, which operates eight campuses in the United States, including an online campus.
In May of 2002, the Lakeland Medical Dental Academy, a long standing leader in allied health education in Minneapolis, became part of Herzing College Minneapolis. Now known as The Lakeland School of Healthcare, it offers diploma and degree programs in Medical Billing & Coding, Medical Assisting, Dental Assisting and Dental Hygiene.
Herzing College is a private, career focused institution of higher education that awards diplomas, associate degrees and bachelor degrees in a variety of disciplines. It was founded by Henry and Suzanne Herzing in 1965 as a computer programming school in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It now has seven campuses in the U.S., and four locations in Canada, and an online Division, herzingonline.edu. Herzing College in the U.S. is accredited by The Higher Learning Commission and a member of the North Central Association.The locations outside of Quebec in Canada are accredited by the Council on Education and Training Accrediting Commission.The programs offered by the Montreal Campus are approved by the Minister of Education in Quebec which allows credits earned there to be transferable to other Quebec institutions of higher education offering the same subjects.
While expanding its campuses, Herzing also diversified its educational programs to include the fields of business, technology, health care, design, and public safety. All U.S. campus locations award bachelor of science degrees and associate of science degrees (Akron location is pending for awarding Bachelor Degrees as of February, 2008) Not all campuses offer all the programs. A pending application with the Higher Learning Commission to offer a Master Degree in Business Administration with several concentrations is expected to be acted upon by August,2008.
