Workforce Development
Preparing a qualified workforce is one of the most important missions of the university. UA is committed to preparing today鈥檚 students to be the next generation workforce, recognizing that tomorrow鈥檚 careers will require advanced skills, greater knowledge and more flexibility than ever before -- but not necessarily a four-year degree. UA offers many pathways for learning new job skills including short-term occupational endorsement programs and two-year degree programs that lead directly into rewarding careers.
