A Letter from the President


Aims Community College welcomes you…

Congratulations on your choice for a quality education. Aims is pleased that we can be a part of your career plans and we believe you have made the right choice. Great opportunities abound for students to take advantage of quality academic programs at Aims. Our highly qualified professors and advisors can guide you through courses that will refine your job skills or transfer to any other public institution in Colorado. The College also has specialized programs for those of you who may need extra academic help to pursue your educational goals. It is all a part of our vision to be a destination institution.

Before enrolling, you hopefully did some research about where you wanted to go, what you wanted to do, and how to afford it. No doubt you have heard claims from some of our competitors about accelerated training programs – including an incredulous offer to train nurse aides in only 11 days. Aims Community College would not make those promises because we know the real story. Training for careers in the health services area or any other field should not be a race, but a journey. Getting there faster may not be advisable in the long run. Knowing that your degree is from an accredited institution of higher education, not a for-profit business, should reassure you and your future employer of the value of your degree. We want our students to be informed consumers and understand the true cost of education.

Our students know that Aims provides an incredibly high-quality education at a truly affordable cost. In fact, for residents of our taxing district, Aims is the most affordable community college in the state. Even for those students who are out of our district, our costs are competitive with other community colleges. Over the past several years, the College has invested in new programs and new buildings and renovated others to ensure that Aims students learn in the best environment and have access to the most modern tools and technology needed to set them apart from competitors in this tough job market.

Aims continues to offer our students superior opportunities through our high quality accredited programs that will help you to “aim higher” and make your future brighter. At Aims Community College, we are here for you.

 

Dr. Marilynn “Marsi” Liddell
President
