Founded in 1976 by Alan Brierley, Richard Price and Charles Prior, BPP has established
an international reputation as one of the leading providers of professional education
in Europe.
In 2007, in recognition of this status and our dedication to educational excellence,
BPP made history by becoming the first ever private company to be granted degree-awarding
powers by the Privy Council. This authentication of our reputation as a leading
professional education provider enables us to award undergraduate and postgraduate
degrees in our own name.In July 2010 we became the only private sector company to have university college status in the UK.
