In 1934, Ruth Dorsey founded the Dorsey School to address the growing demand in business for highly skilled Victor and Burrough's comptometer operators. In its day, the comptometer was the most advanced technology for data tabulation and was widely used into the 1960's.

Today, Dorsey Schools remain committed to preparing individuals for promising career opportunities, technologies, and certifications for the medical, culinary arts, business, legal, and computer fields.

Dorsey Schools is accredited through the Accrediting Council of Independent Colleges and Schools and serves the Detroit metropolitan area with six convenient suburban locations; Farmington Hills, Madison Heights, Roseville, Southgate, Waterford-Pontiac and Wayne-Westland.

Dorsey is proudly represented by tens of thousands of successful graduates working in their chosen careers throughout southeastern Michigan.
