Little Inc. as the Management Education Institute,〔(History and Mission ), Hult International Business School website〕 a subsidiary for training of business executives from developing countries,〔(Arthur D. Little, Inc. ), FundingUniverse website, accessed November 9, 2009〕 modeled on the MIT Sloan School of Management. In 1976, the Arthur D. Little school was accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges.〔 In 1996, the school, then known as the Arthur D. Little School of Management, formed a partnership with Boston College's Carroll School of Management, giving it access to the college's facilities.〔 The following year the Arthur D. Little School of Management became an independent non-profit entity, with Arthur D. Little Inc. as its only shareholder.〔 In 2002, after Arthur D. Little declared bankruptcy, Kaplan, Inc. initiated acquisition of the business school, renaming it the Concord School of Management.〔(Kaplan to Acquire Boston's Arthur D. Little School of Management ), Knight Ridder/Tribune Business News, August 17, 2002〕〔(Arthur D Little School of Management - world’s only example of an accredited corporate university - sold to Kaplan after bankruptcy of parent company ), ''The Observatory on Borderless Higher Education'', November 10, 2002〕〔(Bigger consultancy, bigger B-school )〕 In November 2002, Kaplan abandoned its acquisition plans. At the time, the school had 26 students. In 2003 Bertil Hult stepped in to financially support the failing school. Since then it has grown from its single Boston location to 5 campuses in San Francisco, London, Dubai, Shanghai and two rotation centers in New York and Sao Paulo. The school was renamed Hult International Business School after Bertil Hult, the founder of EF Education First.〔 In 2005, after the accreditation of Hult's one year MBA program by the Association of MBAs (AMBA), Hult began opening new campuses. The Shanghai campus opened in 2007. The following year Hult became the first American educational institution officially approved in the United Arab Emirates〔 when its Dubai campus opened. In 2009, Hult acquired the former facilities of Huron University USA in London to open its London campus. Hult's San Francisco campus opened in 2010.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hult International Business School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
