CBC Included on Victory Media's 2016 Military Friendly Schools List
Central Baptist College revealed that it has been designated a 2016 Military Friendly School by Victory Media, the leader in successfully connecting the military and civilian worlds, and publisher of G.I. Jobs, STEM JobsSM and Military Spouse. Now in its 7th year, the original, premier Military Friendly Schools designation supplies service members and their families with transparent, data driven ratings about post-military education and career chances.
Institutions competed for the elite Military Friendly School title by finishing a survey of over 100 questions covering 10 categories, including military support on campus, graduation and work outcomes, and military spouse policies. Survey responses were scored against benchmarks throughout these key indicators of success. In addition, data was independently tested by EY (Ernst & Young) based upon the weightings and methodology developed by Victory Media with guidance from an independent Advisory Board of higher education and recruiting professionals.
The Military Friendly Schools classification is granted to the top colleges, universities, community colleges and trade schools in the country that are doing the most to embrace military students, and to dedicate resources to ensure their success both in the classroom and after graduation. The methodology utilized for making the Military Friendly Schools list has changed the student veteran landscape to one much more transparent, and has played a significant role over the previous 7 years in catching and advancing best practices to support military students across the nation.

CBC President Terry Kimbrow said, "It is an honor to be included on the Military Friendly Schools list for the 7th year in a row. We have a long tradition of dealing with students who serve or have served our country. We will remain to do whatever it takes to honor their service.".
