Assessment & College Strategic Goals

Assessment at Coconino Community College

Coconino Community College is committed to providing teaching and learning excellence in all its endeavors through a comprehensive assessment program that includes:

Assessment of Student Learning
This form of assessment involves identifying how competently students have attained learning outcomes in both general education and the major. Each curricular area at the College has articulated the learning outcomes expected of students completing each degree or certificate and the level of student performance expected. Students participate through examinations, portfolios, performance assessments, surveys, and related activities. The emphasis in these areas is directly focused on what a student has learned as a result of their educational experience at CCC. Data collected are used to both document and improve student learning.

Faculty, staff, and students share responsibility to assist with assessment efforts. As well, community members at large are asked to participate in our quality assurance program. In all instances assessment activities stem directly from the institution’s mission and purposes. Results are tied to the College’s strategic plan and used to improve student learning. Participation in these activities is appreciated and valued by members of the College community as CCC strives to achieve its vision of being "Northern Arizona’s premier learner-centered community for achieving your dreams of success."

The mission of the foundation is to promote the purpose and goals of Coconino Community College to enhance the opportunities for Coconino County residents.

The Coconino County Community College Foundation, Inc. was founded in 1993 under Arizona law as a non-profit corporation. It is fiscally and organizationally separate from the college with its own Board of Directors. Its purpose is to receive private gifts, bequests, and donations; to account for, manage, and help appreciate monies or property submitted to the Foundation; and to help the college with projects and opportunities which may not be funded by public funds.

Funds for the Foundation are distributed to benefit and advance Coconino Community College and for the encouragement and subsidization of the students and faculty of CCC.
The Foundation Board of Directors is composed of selected residents of Coconino County who represent positive leadership and community influence and have expressed an interest and desire to use their influence on behalf of the college through the Foundation.

The Foundation is prepared to support programs and activities of the college which promote the objectives of the institution. Foundation activities and support include, but are not limited to, scholarships and financial aid for students, recognition of outstanding scholarship or leadership, recognition for cost savings suggestions, development of special facilities, awards for special achievement, management and investment of funds, support of the college library, procurement of special equipment, planning for special college activities and programs, and development of area-wide interest in support of the college.

Gifts to the Foundation may be made in several ways and may usually be arranged to simultaneously achieve maximum tax benefits for the donor and provide generous support for education. Contributions may be made by gifts of cash, real or personal property, securities, provision of a will, gifts of insurance policies, or the establishment of trusts. Gifts may be awarded for specific purposes or given without restrictions.

The Coconino County Community College Foundation, Inc. supports quality education through excellence, achievement and commitment.
