• History & Memorable Moments

The National College of Business and Arts was established in 1968, at the corner of R. Papa and Lepanto streets in Sampaloc, Manila between two giants in Philippine private education: University of the East with its mammoth population of 65,000 and Far Eastern University with its 47,000 enrollmen). A small building was erected to house a small school — the National College of Business and Arts. Today the NCBA branch in Cubao is the main campus. ^[1]

NCBA's founder was the late Dr. Doroteo S. Pasion, a well-known educator (former dean of commerce of San Beda College, former CPA review director of the University of the East, and former president of PSBA), lawyer, accountant, author, and civic leader. Pasion launched NCBA as a public service, with others who believed in the NCBA concept: Col.Rafael Q. Yap-Diangco, Atty. Jose R. Torres, Jr., Mrs. Gloria C. Meñez, and Mrs. Lourdes L. Sarabia. ^[1]

Keeping to its founder's vision, NCBA opted to remain as a specialized school and its growth was measured and steady through the years. From that small edifice along R. Papa Street, NCBA slowly expanded its academic programs and facilities with the single purpose of the nation type of educated manpower it needs for its development and well-being. ^[1]

When NCBA opened in 1968, its offerings were limited to the following courses: Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Arts, two-year course in Secretarial Administration, and its own CPA review. The NCBA High School was opened in school year 1973-1974 followed by additional offerings of short terminal courses in Cooperative, Salesmanship, Bookkeeping and Accounting, and Small business Management in 1974-1975. ^[1]

Today, NCBA has three campuses — NCBA Cubao, NCBA Fairview, NCBA Taytay — and boasts of a complete package of academic offering, from preparatory school to graduate education. ^[1]

Since its founding, NCBA has endeavored continually to perpetuate its education policy to offer and provide, in facilities and in teaching force, a complete education to young men and women and to equip them with the skills and training to become responsible citizens and future leaders of our country. ^[1]
