In Colorado, we are committed to creating a world-class workforce investment system that is agile, responsive, innovative, customer-oriented, and performance-based. As the state’s largest provider of training and education services, the Colorado Community College System is a key player in workforce development.

- Prepare individuals with basic and advanced skills necessary to succeed in the 21st-Century knowledge economy,
- Offer training necessary for career advancement in the fast-paced knowledge economy,
- Develop programs that meet the economic needs of communities and employers,
- Provide opportunities for low-wage workers to receive education and learn skills necessary to move up career ladders,
