Our Roots Are Strong
Thompson Institute was founded in 1918 as Beckley College, a business school offering vocational training to students in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Although the name and ownership of the school has changed over the years, our focus on quality education remains strong. In October 1982, Thompson Institute opened a branch campus in Philadelphia, offering many of the same programs as the Harrisburg campus. Nearly 25 years later, Thompson Institute continues to offer outstanding career education in Philadelphia.
Thompson Institute was acquired by Quest Education Corporation, a subsidiary of Kaplan, Inc., in 2002. Later that year, Quest changed its name to Kaplan Higher Education Corporation.
