History of Lakewood University

Lakewood University DBA the American Center for Conflict Resolution Institute (ACCRI), was founded in October 1998. 

For the first few years of operation, ACCRI consisted of mediation and paralegal training programs. Over the years, the institute grew in both student population and program offerings.

In 2009, the name was changed to Lakewood College in order to better reflect the wide variety of programs offered. For the past decade, Lakewood University has been setting new standards of excellence in education by offering distance learning degree and diploma programs in the legal, medical, and business fields.
