Career Development

Employee and Organizational Learning is what sets PVCC apart from many other educational institutions. We brace a Learning-Centered College methodology and emphasize learning as our college core value. Therefore, the expectation for our employees is to participate in the extensive professional development and other learning opportunities offered both internally and externally to our organization.

Highlights include:

• The Center for Teaching, Learning, and Employee Engagement - to provide support for employee and organizational learning for the continuous improvement of student learning, success, and achievement through the personal and professional growth of all employees, work units, and functional areas within our institution.
• District Professional Growth to help fund educational and professional opportunities.
• Open Educational Resources is a great opportunity to create relevant, hands-on materials to excite learners, and these course materials are free and open for the public to use, helping to reduce higher education costs as well. 
• Career Services offers both students and staff access to tools and resources to support career growth including mock interviews and resume building suggestions.
• Educational Partnerships offer MCCCD employees discounted fees and tuition to further their educational goals.
