Our faculty have the background and expertise necessary to provide you with the skills and competencies required in today’s environment. Staff members have the passion and knowledge to help you navigate through your educational experience. As a strengths-based institution, we are dedicated to helping you determine and understand your own personal strengths, and will help you maximize them in the pursuit of your educational and career goals.

We have been proudly educating the residents of south Phoenix, Ahwatukee, Chandler, Tempe, Guadalupe and Laveen at the main campus and Guadalupe site for more than 35 years. In 2013, a new partnership was created with the Gila River Indian Community, and we continue to serve the community members on the Reservation with programming that integrates Native traditions and cultural elements.
