Yavapai College Mission

The mission of Yavapai College is to provide high quality, convenient and cost-effective learning opportunities for the diverse populations of Yavapai County.

Yavapai College Vision

Yavapai College is an ongoing asset to the State of Arizona and particularly to the people and organizations of Yavapai County. We will meet ever-greater challenges, responsibly serving a region where the traditional exists side-by-side with rapid change.

Nurturing open communication and independent inquiry, we will link local strengths to global knowledge and opportunity, and build bridges from the best of the past to the yet unexplored possibilities of a new century.

The Value of Each Individual

We value each individual, all cultures, and the natural world upon which we depend, and must offer leadership in understanding and protecting them. The measure of success in realizing our vision will be a future in which each member of the college community is able to continue to learn and to serve.

Therefore, our programs and service must be defined by flexibility in our delivery and customization of our learning programs to meet the current and emerging needs of our county.

Strategic Planning Mission

The mission of the Strategic Planning Committee is to implement and evaluate an ongoing institutional strategic planning cycle in support of academic and administrative decision making.

The strategic planning cycle is data driven, inclusive, and has at its core a mechanism to demonstrate the impact of decisions on student learning.
