The connection of IMPAC University and IMPAC represents one of the first international endeavors that combines expertise from the business world and the educational world in a formalized university setting.
While IMPAC University and the IMPAC Corporation are independent entities, their relationship is a complementary one. It was a natural evolution in the late 1990’s when the Chairman of the Board and the senior corporate management team of the company began to explore the feasibility of founding a formal educational institution. The goal was twofold. First, IMPAC could reach a broader base of individuals who would benefit from their expertise in business and industry. Second, IMPAC could formalize its commitment to the value of learning and pursuing knowledge. Educational specialists were sought out and in December 1998, IMPAC University, L.L.C. was founded.
Throughout 1999 and into 2000 IMPAC University developed formal Masters and certificate programs in a number of business-related areas. IMPAC University is now fully licensed by the State of Florida to offer the graduate degrees in key business areas. Each program is designed with a focus on incorporating the best business applications through learned technology provided in an academic environment. The rigor, research, and scholarship emphasis of a university have been combined with the expertise and wisdom of leaders in our professional business community. The programs are designed to respond to the needs of today's business world with the flexibility to adjust to those needs as they evolve.
