| Our
Vision
Our
mission is to be the college of first choice for companies, institutions,
and individuals to attain business education, training, and skills
within Community College District 535.
Our
Mission
As
the college of choice, we will continuously seek to improve the
scope, quality, and impact of our programs based on the expressed
needs of the community at-large and our students, in particular.
We
will be a leader within the state in designing unique, leading-
edge programs aimed at leveraging the ever-changing business environment
for the benefit of our customers. In order to forge links directly
to the community, we will seek to form partnerships for education
with businesses, government and social organizations, and educational
institutions.
Our
programs will be demanding, focused, and intellectually satisfying,
challenging our students to explore and expand the limits of their
capabilities. We will maintain a focus on each student as an individual
and encourage and mentor them to attain goals of lifelong learning
and professional excellence.
We
will encourage in our students a dissatisfaction with the status
quo, a thirst for reasonable risk, the initiative to take action,
and the ability to lead from the heart. They will graduate with
an understanding of the skills and responsibilities of business
leadership necessary to forge the future. We will
focus on identifying and developing within our students marketable
knowledge and skills that will be valued by employers within the
community and lead to satisfying careers.
As professional educators, we will continuously improve our knowledge within our areas of expertise and our skills as teachers and mentors. We will seek to establish a personal and professional relationship with each student that will allow them to benefit from the full range of our knowledge, skill, and experience.
Valuing
the diversity inherent in our community, we will reach out to under-served
groups, identify their unique educational needs, and create innovative
initiatives to meet those needs.
Above
all else, we will focus on the life-altering outcomes our students
desire and deserve as a result of having engaged with our faculty
in the joint pursuit of knowledge, skills, and personal growth.
