We are educating the next generation of healthcare professionals to serve the underserved.
To educate and train a diverse group of highly competent and compassionate healthcare professionals; to create health and research support facilities; and to provide healthy living environments to improve the lives of others.
The Arkansas Colleges of Health Education (ACHE) is a private, not-for-profit institution located in Fort Smith, Arkansas. We are fulfilling our mission of training competent, compassionate healthcare professionals through our Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, Doctor of Occupational Therapy, Doctor of Physical Therapy, Master of Science in Biomedicine and Master of Public Health.
Creating a campus community where all students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members belong and thrive is vital to our holistic efforts of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
“Our students are not just learning anatomy, they are contributing to scientific discoveries that connect human movement today with stories written in the bones of the past.”
This agreement creates structured academic and professional development pathways that expand opportunity and access to osteopathic medical education.
The M.A.P. Program has expanded to include college students interested in becoming Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) at ARCOM. This growth supports ACHE’s mission to build a more inclusive, compassionate healthcare workforce while helping reduce health disparities in the communities that need it most.
