The History of Mildred Elley

business schools 	Albany, NY For nearly a century, the Capital District of New York has been home to one of the nation's finest business schools and nursing schools. In 1917, when a shortage of office workers in the Capital District occurred because of World War I, many positions previously held by men opened to women. A group of young women eager to obtain skills needed to fill these well-paying office positions turned to Mrs. Augusta Mildred Elley. Educated at a New York City private school, she held a four-year college degree. Mrs. Elley was a well known suffragette and respected for her intellectual pursuits. She agreed to teach typing and shorthand and from then on built a reputable school for women.

In 1985, Faith Ann Takes became President of Mildred Elley. Under her leadership, the school entered an era of change and growth. In that year, the school became co-educational—offering career training to both men and women.  And in later years, the school began offering evening and weekend classes to fill the needs of the community.

And in 2008, the college relocated to its current location at 855 Central Avenue in Albany, NY. In 1991, a branch campus was established in Pittsfield, Massachusetts at 505 East Street.  And in 2010, Mildred Elley opened its newest campus location in lower Manhattan at 25 Broadway, Floor 16, New York.
