But PBA is thriving. This rise in student enrollment reflects increased demand for PBA’s Christ-centered education with an emphasis on free enterprise. Located in South Florida—a region that itself has experienced rapid growth in recent years, The Palm Beaches offer an array of career opportunities in international business, health care, tech, and more.
