History

The Institute of Business and Medical Careers (IBMC or the College) was founded in 1987 under the name of Medical Careers Training Center and was located on College Avenue in Fort Collins, Colorado. The College has been owned and operated by The Laub Company, Inc. since 1991.

Originally, the College awarded diplomas in the field of Medical Assisting. In 1995, due to rapid growth of the student body, as well as an increasing awareness of a need for business programs in Northern Colorado and surrounding areas, the College expanded to include business programs and awards Associates of Occupational Studies degrees, diplomas, and certificates. The expansion within the College’s programs was accompanied by a name change to the Institute of Business and Medical Careers. In June of 1995, the College moved from its original location to 1609 Oakridge Drive, Fort Collins, Colorado. In the spring of 2005, IBMC opened a branch campus in Cheyenne, Wyoming.  In February 2008, a branch campus was opened in Greeley, CO.  The Fort Collins campus moved from its Oakridge campus into a 22,000 square foot facility located at 3842 South Mason Street in September of 2008.  This new facility brought enhanced technology, larger student service areas, as well as additional classrooms. 

Through the years, the College has grown and expanded with additional courses and programs to match student skills with the needs of employers, healthcare services, and business sectors.
