Arizona Tribune - American College of Education Launches Redesigned Business Degree Program in Organizational Leadership

The business degree, which was 34 credits, now only requires 31 credits to complete. This change reduces the time it takes to complete the program to as little as 12 months.* It also reduces the cost of the program to a total of $9,109.

"We are continually evaluating and making improvements to ensure ACE's academic programs both serve the needs of our students and align with employer needs," said ACE President and CEO Geordie Hyland. "The updates to our M.S. in Organizational Leadership program reflect our academic ethos as well as our commitment to making higher education as accessible as possible."

This is the second time ACE has redesigned a business degree to make it more accessible. In December 2024, the college streamlined its Master of Business Administration program, also reducing its time to completion and total cost.

"By staying attuned to market demand and student need, we ensure we're giving our students the best opportunity for achieving future success," continued Hyland. "They graduate with a high-quality degree that provides them with a positive return on their investment, both through the relevant skills and the practical knowledge they acquire, along with the fact that they don't need to accrue student debt to earn it."

ACE's M.S. in Organizational Leadership prepares leaders to guide and drive organizations toward success. Students hone their ability to make data-informed decisions that solve complex problems as well as how to manage teams through times of change. Through career-relevant assignments, students learn how to set strategic goals, sustain positive work cultures, and lead by example.
