The mission statement is developed through a process suited to the nature and culture of the institution and is adopted by the governing board. 2. The institution’s academic programs, student support services, and enrollment profile are consistent with its stated mission. 3. The institution’s planning and budgeting priorities align with and support the mission. (This sub-component may be addressed by reference to the response to Criterion 5.C.1.) Argument AWC is guided by a truly inspirational mission and vision and AWC operates with values of shared governance and responsibilities at its center. The mission and vision were developed in a manner that highlights these values. Arizona Western College developed a revised mission in 2017, broadly involving groups of students, faculty, staff and community, and working closely with the District Governing Board. The newly adopted mission was formally introduced to the community and stakeholders in January of 2018. It builds on the previous mission. (AWC Strategic Plan 2018). The updated mission is aligned with AWC’s priorities to serve the community and meet educational needs: Transforming lives through education and partnerships to create thriving communities. The new mission was developed with input from the entire region and a variety of stakeholders and constituents.
