New Horizons was founded by Michael Brinda in Laguna Hills in 1982. In 1985, after adding Lotus and C++ to its curriculum, the company moved to larger offices in Irvine. The addition of classes in Windows programming in 1986 necessitated another expansion to offices in Santa Ana. By 1992, further additions to its course offerings enabled the company to expand nationwide. The first international location opened in Mexico City in 1993.

The following year, New Horizons was purchased by Handex Consulting & Remediation LLC, which resulted in further international expansion into South America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. At this point, New Horizons had become the largest network of Microsoft Authorized Technical Education Centers (ATECs). The company's first European location (in Barcelona) was opened shortly thereafter.

In 1996, New Horizons began trading on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol of NEWH (changed to NASDAQ: NWRZ on Sep. 17, 2009). Within a year, New Horizons became the largest independent IT training company in the world with over 154 training centers and 100 Microsoft Certified Technical Education Centers (CTECs).

New Horizons and the EC-Council became partners in 2004 to deliver Certified Ethical Hacker and Countermeasures Training.

In 2011, New Horizons was granted VMware Authorized Training Center Status, allowing North American centers to deliver VMware training.

In 2012, New Horizons Computer Learning Centers celebrated its 30th Anniversary.
