Early Years
The Institute of Creative Computer Technology was originally established in Rizal by Dr. William S.

With the passage of Republic Act No. 7722 of the Higher Education Act of 1994, privately controlled educational institution's academic fees were deregulated. Unlike the other universities and colleges who used this as an most value for money. Until today, ICCT Colleges continues to provide the most affordable tuition fees. This makes it stand out among its peers.[1]
Higher Education Act of 1994
With the passage of Republic Act No. 7722 or the Higher Education Act of 1994 which was authored by Senator Francisco Tatad, privately controlled educational institutions' academic fees were deregulated.

Until today, ICCT Colleges continues to provide the most affordable tuition fees.
