Ross Education's early activities began in 1969 when J. Ross opened a school in Flint, Michigan, under the name of the Learning Foundation. The school provides "after school" academic instruction to kindergarten through twelfth grade students. Six additional schools were opened from 1969 to 1971 by Mr. Ross. In 1971, the company name was changed to Ross Learning, Inc., and the company's focus shifted to providing pre-vocational and vocational training services for adults. Ross Learning was purchased by Howard J. Hulsman in 1973 and the organization began to evolve into a career training center. In 1976, Ross opened a more comprehensive instructional service from Ross Medical Education Center.
