Erie Business Center (EBC) is a progressive private institution offering programs of higher education for men and women. EBC is large enough to provide diverse curricula, yet small enough to give personal attention to each student. Here, every student has the opportunity to become an important part of the program. Students do not lose their identity as individuals.

The purpose of Erie Business Center is to serve the people of the tri-state area by providing students with the necessary skills, knowledge and positive business mentality to contribute effectively to the business community.

To achieve these goals, EBC strives to:

• Develop in students useful scholarship, social responsibility and a sense of human values.
• Encourage students to accept responsibility for their own actions and become aware of the importance of an educated society.
• Challenge students to fully realize their potential growth and worth.
• Maintain a faculty and staff committed to superior training in business skills.
• Provide a sincere and supportive environment for students to learn on a one-to-one basis.
• Provide an alternative to a four-year education by offering viable, challenging ASB degree programs to prepare students for the business world.
• Develop complementing, supportive courses to promote communication skills and general business knowledge as the tools for graduate success.
