Northampton Community College Mission:
Northampton Community College strives to prepare members of its community with the knowledge and critical skills they need to adapt to challenges in life and employment. To this end, we help them develop the following abilities: to learn throughout their lives; to change and grow; to develop a depth of knowledge in an area of specialization; to adapt to technological change; to communicate effectively; to collaborate on the job and in life; to understand and value diversity; to be sensitive to the needs and feelings of others and to be contributing members of their communities. We do all this as an affordable open admissions institution that provides students with support services to assist them in achieving their goals.
