EDUCATION THAT WORKS: College Designed for Real-World Success
Programs that align to your interests & future. 9 Areas of Interest We know that every student is unique. That's why Central Arizona College has developed multiple Areas of Interests that offer certificates, degrees, and pathways to help students identify their interests and select a program of study that sets them up for success in the workforce or to transfer to university.
The Pinal Promise educational initiative was launched in 2001 by a caring community that believed that college should be a reality for every Pinal County student. This program was developed to encourage young people to stay in high school, graduate, and pursue their college education through Central Arizona College.
