It was formerly known as the Americare School of Allied Health and was formerly affiliated with both the Computer Career Institute which rented space from Johns Hopkins University and the Career Institute of American International College. American Career Institute (ACI) had 8 campuses located in various cities within the states of Massachusetts and Maryland.
