                 On Graduate School & Research Centers

AMIU offers person-centered graduate education, providing scholars with opportunities to earn a degree through diverse learning methods. We recognize that acquiring knowledge is not limited by time needed to learn, age, or a personal, national or geographic location. Individuals must complete a person-centered degree plan.Educational goals can all be achieved without leaving one's home or work. We agree scholars are challenged to master the learning demanded by a career field of their choice.

AMIU's founders began offering distance education in 1983. Continuing education courses were first offered to US  professionals in 1981 and to Latin American professionals in 1995. It is our intent to offer state of the art distance learning methods using advanced communication technologies and an educational delivery system that follow practices developed by Ivy League University educators who began the US distance  learning movement in the early 1960s.

         There are three primary criteria for admission to the Graduate School.

1.     Evidence of motivation to work toward a graduate or post-graduate degree;

2.    Evidence of ability to do graduate work;

3.    Evidence of ability to become a self-directed learner.

We are pleased to observe renown US professionals have attended  distance-learning institutions before they became accredited by a regional association. In that regard we constantly pursue self studies designed to strengthen Socratic and Confucian learning experiences we offer. These actions are taken from the premises of a progressive religious institution focused on the economical challenges that our scholars face.

Distance learning is our means for sharing a vision and meeting educational needs worldwide. Conscientious learners and researchers of stature conduct research and may earn an advanced degree; as such we recognize credible learning experiences.  But the Board of Trustees upholds an oath to deny privileges to any charlatan holding themselves out as  a University rep.

We apply a non-traditional learning model, which was first launched by learned US professionals in 1964, and similar to the Open University of London. Renowned leaders who developed today's distance education  are described by Roy Fairfield (1977) in his book Person-Centered Graduate Education. Those educators were inspired by the wisdom of Socrates and Confucius who centuries ago espoused learning from non-traditional fountains of knowledge that have had an immense affects on our world. They certainly did not do this at institutions accredited in the United States, Mexico, Canada, Europe or East Asia. Yet noted historical contributions arising there from had lasting implications for the past, the present and the future. As we close 2006, distance education has exploded in North America and Europe all because of the high costs and high needs, but few universities reach out to answer the vast needs of third world where learned persons among the impoverished have higher demands and even greater limitations than any affluent nations do. We are especially open to  scholars from the third world who work mentors to grow degree plans and graduate committee persons whom they select. Our School of Continuing Education is tied to an Approved Continuing Education Sponsor.
