About Us

The Portland campus of Everest College was established in 1955. A leader right from the start, we are proud to have been the first college in Oregon to offer data processing skills as well as hands-on classroom training with actual computer equipment. In late 2005, the campus changed its name from Western Business College. This change reflected the diverse selection of fields offered beyond Business including Medical, Criminal Justice, and Travel. Our steady growth has kept in step with an expanding job market. We have moved four times, consistently upgrading to larger, state-of-the-art facilities. Today, we are proud to continue our tradition of providing students with cutting-edge curriculum and necessary resources to succeed in the ever-changing employment market.
