Branford Hall was originally founded and incorporated in 1965 by Nelson Bernabucci, a Connecticut state certified business teacher dedicated to preparing individuals for successful careers. The first campus was located in Branford, CT. Over the years, Branford Hall has developed a reputation for quality and integrity in specialized career education.

Recognizing a growing demand for quality career education, Branford Hall opened a branch campus in Windsor, CT in 1996 and in Southington, CT in 1997. In 1999 Branford Hall's fourth campus opened in the Springfield, MA area. In 2000 expansion continued into New York as Branford Hall arrived in Ronkonkoma, Long Island. Branford Hall Career Institute is part of Premier Education Group. In addition to the five Branford Hall campuses, the Premier Education Group includes The Salter School with three locations in Worcester, MA, Malden, MA, and Tewksbury, MA. Also part of Premier Education Group is Seacoast Career School in Sanford, ME and Suburban Technical School in Hempstead, NY.
