Mission
To promote the value of higher education and the important role the Manchester Area Colleges play in contributing to the economic, social and cultural well being of this area.
The Manchester Area Colleges have united to communicate to potential students from all over the globe, as well as to greater Manchester residents and businesses, the considerable assets the eleven area colleges bring to the region. Those assets have a major positive impact on the quality and variety of educational options for both traditional and non-traditional students; on the ability of businesses to train and keep a skilled workforce; on the arts and recreational options in the area; and on the general quality of life.
Our institutions of higher learning educate over 15,500 students in our region annually. The colleges are a vital asset to the economic climate. They provide an educated workforce, and are significant contributors to the cultural life of the area.
Greater Manchester's students represent diverse ages and ethnic backgrounds which enhances the appeal of the region.
