'Commitment to Excellence' Many businesses say their most important job is satisfying the customer. We believe customer satisfaction is only a minimum requirement. We seek therefore not merely to satisfy our students, but to empower them to make significant changes in their lives, changes our student's desire and deserve. We believe this empowerment comes from a unique educational process in which every Alaska Career College employee works toward the success of every student. This unique commitment to the education of our students by the faculty and staff of Alaska Career College means giving our students dramatically more value than they expect -- whether that value is measured by performance, quality, tuition cost, features, or service. We know we are succeeding when we inspire our students not simply to accept the minimum standards, but to invest in themselves and their education. We seek not merely to provide the minimum requirements in career education; we seek to teach the skills necessary to help our graduates begin their careers. The programs we offer at Alaska Career College are neither the shortest nor the least expensive, but we believe they are the best. The education we provide our students is well worth the extra commitment on their part and ours. We believe this commitment to be the true worth of our philosophy and mission.
