Organizational Practices
In the context of our organizational values, we provide the highest quality learning environment by practicing these behaviors:
- Identifying the learning needs of the communities, students, and employees we serve. We use that information to guide our teaching, programs, and services
- Welcoming new opportunities for learning and professional growth
- Identifying and using benchmarks and best practices to improve our work as we focus on institutional purpose, vision, mission, and values
- Holding and communicating high standards for ourselves, our students, and our colleagues
- Practicing inclusive, learning-centered planning and decision-making, based on facts and our best judgment
- Recognizing problems and collaborating to seek root causes and implementing effective solutions
- Empowering and freeing those closest to the work to make responsible decisions
- Assuming personal and collective stewardship of college systems, processes, programs, facilities, and resources to keep them vital
- Celebrating individual and group initiatives and achievements
- Promoting, both individually and collectively, a positive image of the college to all segments of the communities we serve
