The College

Porterville College is committed to providing an educational process to enhance the personal worth and intellectual potential of its students and is also dedicated to producing graduates who are prepared for tomorrow's challenges. Statistics prove that Porterville College students who transfer to a four-year college earn grades that are equal to or better than those earned by students who go directly from high school to a fouryear institution. Our vocational graduates enter the work force with a degree or certificate that means quality training to area employers.

We know that student excellence is directly related to superior achievement by our faculty and staff. Professional development, high individual achievement and regional and national recognition for innovative responses to educational needs, make the Porterville College faculty and staff eminently qualified to educate and serve tomorrow's leaders.
