HistoryAMA Computer College was built upon the dream of the late Amable M. Aguiluz Sr. (AMA), Auditor General during the term of President Diosdado Macapagal, to set up an education, which will serve as a legacy to the youth. This dream was realized on Oct. 20,19880 when his son, Dr. Amable R. Aguiluz V (ARA) founded the AMA Institute of Computer Studies to pioneer computer literacy in the country. The school, which was located at Shaw Boulevard, catered to short-term courses in EDP Fundamentals, Basic Programming and Technology Career Courses. In June 1981, the AMA Computer College (AMACC) was born with the launching of the 4-year degree course in BS Computer Science. The student population of AMACC rose dramatically from 13 in 1981 to 600 in 1983 and to 2,000 in 1985. InResponse to the growing need for the computer education, AMA establish its first campus in Makati in 1983 and its second campus in Project 8, Quezon City in 1986 catering to already more than 3,000 students. In 1987, AMA establish the following: 1) AMA Computer Learning Center(ACLC) which offers short course computer program and 2yeaar technical vocational courses; 2) computer based basic education for elementary and high-school levels for the Quezon City Campus; and 3) first provincial campus in Cebu city. The second provincial campus was opened in Davao in 1989 and over the years was followed by five (5) more local branches in AMACC-Binan, AMACC-Sta.Cruz, Laguna, AMACC-Antipolo, AMA-Caloocan, and AMACC-Cagayan de Oro and (7) international branches in Los Angeles, USA, Abu dabhi, Barhain, Bangladesh, Guam, Hongkong and Malaysia. In 1996, AMA spearheaded the establishment of the first telecommunication school in the Philippines, the AMA Telecommunications and Electronics Learning Center (AMATEL). In 1997, AMA embarked on its most ambitious and massive expansion program with the establishment of our (4) new campuses in Antipolo, Caloocan City, Sta.Cruz, Laguna and Cagayan de Oro for a total of nine (9) Campuses. The existing Campuses are: Makati, Quezon City, Cebu, Davao and Biñan Laguna. In 1998, AMA intends to put up twenty (20) more branches nationwide. To date, AMA has total of 32,000 students in the entire Education System. In the 1990s the AMA Group of Companies was formed when it branched out into other types of business and services in the field power generation, electric distribution and equipment supply infrastructure and construction development; food and convience; and trading through the import and export of commercial and industrial products. It has also ventured into reality business. Today, AMA is know as the largest and Asia’s pioneer in information technology-based education and is also recognized as one of the fastest growing Filipino owned group of companies in the country.
