Akamai University, USA

Akamai University is accredited by the Accreditation Service for International Schools, Colleges and Universities (ASIC). Akamai has been designated as an ASIC Premier University for demonstrating several quality areas of strength and good practice. Our mission and vision as an institution of higher learning is the advancement of the human condition and sustainability of the planet. Akamai believes it is no small aspiration to strive for a world filled with greater peace, balance, cooperation, and the promise of an evolved human fellowship. We believe these goals are noble foundation stones upon which to establish the fundamentals of sustainable human culture.
As educators at Akamai University, we are most comfortable with instructional methods that empower our students to think beyond the confines of the classroom, building achievement and new learning fully engaged with their personal and professional lives. We respect each student as a unique individual, academically and professionally. Freed from traditional residency requirements, our distance learning students are able to pursue advanced study in a personalized and self-paced manner while maintaining full time employment and family responsibilities. We honor the life pursuits of our students, providing opportunities to integrate professional activities within their programs. As a non-profit organization, Akamai has established the fairest tuition rates possible to provide access for students from across the global community.

Since its founding on the Island of Hawaii in 2002, Akamai’s primary quest has been the delivery of meaningful international education programs, individualized to the academic and professional goals of our students. Under the direction of quality faculty, our students are encouraged to create and evaluate, do independent and original thinking, make judgments, communicate unique ideas, feelings and experiences, and design effective solutions within “real life” situations. We believe this type of outcome contributes in a powerful manner to the development of effectiveness for professional-minded individuals. Akamai encourages its students to individualize their studies, to address the important needs of their home communities, and the changing demands of their professions. Our students pursue their programs in a manner that is meaningful and relevant to the professional responsibilities and the life-style of working adults. Being freed from traditional residency requirements, our students pursue advanced learning in a self-paced manner, while maintaining their full time employment and family commitments. While Akamai programs are delivered by distance education and cross-border models, our students find the university welcoming and friendly, as our leadership upholds our students’ success and achievement foremost in their minds.
