Our thanks go out to each of our primary care physicians

and specialists who give their best every day to

provide the highest quality healthcare!

Victor Valley CollegeEight reasons to go to

Affordability Victor Valley College is a great way to save money and receive a quality

education for the first two years of your degree path. Students should plan on paying approximately $1,000 per semester while attending VVC which is substantially less than the same courses at a university.

5.

Conviently Located If you want to go to a college where you feel comfortable and be with your friends,

VVC is the place to be. Here, the short drive will save you gas money and keep you close to home so you don’t have to pay higher rents for housing. If you live at home with your family you can continue to benefit from their loving support everyday.

4.Beautiful Campus VVC has a beautiful, tranquil and sustainable campus. At the heart of the

campus is a gorgeous lake that is home to a wide variety of wildlife. Migratory birds, geese, ducks, turtles, and of course fish live in and around the campus main water feature. It provides a peaceful study spot for students. A gazebo overlooking the picturesque lake is a popular wedding spot proving that the campus is truly beautiful.

8.

Programs and Certificates With more than 25 degrees and slightly more than 125 certificate programs, enrolled

students will find a wide range of career paths to pursue and job skills training to help you enter the job market today. With our new Associate Degree Transfer programs, students on select four year paths benefit from a streamlined transfer into the Cal State University System.

3.

Exceptional Faculty VVC’s faculty are some of the most gifted individuals in the California Community

College system. They are dedicated to your education. Plan on enrolling in one of the best nursing programs in the state, participating in hands on published research projects or learning in a flipped classroom environment. Whatever your degree path, faculty care about your future.

1.

Award Winning Programs Students are engaged at VVC! Whether you join the Model United Nations Team,

Phi Theta Kappa or become a member of the Associated Student Body Leadership you are joining the ranks of award winning and internationally recognized clubs!

2.

New Facilities As a result of the passage of Measure JJ your learning will take place in state-of-

the-art facilities like our new $31.5 million Regional Public Safety Training Center located in Apple Valley. The training complex is specifically designed to support students in the Administration of Justice, Fire Technology, Emergency Medical Services and Corrections programs. It provides students the opportunity for cooperative emergency scenario cross-training exercises experienced by first responders every day in the normal course of the job. Currently, the music building is being renovated and a 20,000 square foot new health science center is slated for completion for Fall of 2015.

6.

Short Term Fee Based Classes

The Department of Contract & Community Education offers general interest as well as skills-based certification training to the greater Victor Valley community. These training opportunities do not carry any college credit, but usually result in a state and/or nationally recognized certification that leads to a job in the high desert. A few of our more popular fee-based classes include training to be a Certified Notary, Certified Phlebotomy Technician, and Solar PV Installation Technician.

Before the drought made recent headlines, the Mojave Water Agency had been working with our communities to ensure a sustainable water supply. One way is to use less water. That’s why MWA and the Alliance for Water Awareness and Conservation encourage you to conserve.

To date, we’ve made great progress and even surpassed state goals. We’ve removed 6.1 million square feet of turf and replaced it with water-wise landscaping, and together we’ve reduced the region’s per person water use by 30 percent since 2000!

For more information visit the MWA website at www.mojavewater.org or www.saveourh2o.org

Participate in the Cash for Grass Program Plant drought-resistant trees and plants

The Victor Valley College

the Victor Valley College Alumni

Hall of Fame, 3rd District Supervisor

for the County of San Bernardino,

James Ramos. Ramos rose from an

underprivileged youth on the San

Manuel Indian Reservation to become

one of the most prominent leaders in

San Bernardino County.

At a young age, Ramos

developed a strong work ethic and

entrepreneurial spirit which prompted

him to pursue an education degree

ladder in business administration and

accounting. He graduated from Victor

Valley College with his associate’s

degree in 1994, earned his bachelor’s

in 2002 from California State San

Bernardino and eventually his MBA in

2009 from the University of Redlands.

“Victor Valley College provides

an essential avenue for students in the

High Desert region to obtain a higher

education. Having the opportunity to

complete my Associate’s Degree from

VVC allowed me to move forward in

my life to where I am today. Education

opens doors we may not think possible.

I am proud to be a graduate of an

institution dedicated to opening those

doors for all students in the community,”

Ramos said.

Ramos’ educational

background has led him on a

successful career path and his resume

is unique. When asked what some of his

proudest accomplishments are, Ramos

says it is being an advocate for Native

American culture and preserving its

history. He has been actively involved

in cultural awareness programs and

curriculum at various educational

institutions throughout the county for

over 20 years.

His passion for education

led him to seek a seat on the San

Bernardino Community College District

Board of Trustees. In 2005, he won the

election and continued to serve for

seven years until 2012. While serving

as a Trustee, he was appointed by the

Governor to the California State Native

American Heritage Commission in 2008

elected to the San Bernardino County

Board of Supervisors in 2012.

Through his work as a civic

leader, Ramos received an honorary

doctorate in Humane Letters from

Northern Arizona University in 2009

and was awarded the “Keeper of

the Light Award” for his distinguished

contributions to the Inland Empire

community.

For a second year in a row, the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians granted $77,000 to the Victor Valley College Foundation to help enhance emergency responder training provided at the Victor Valley College Regional Public Safety Training Center. The state-­of-­the-­art center in Apple Valley, California is one of the only facilities in the United States which assists students to

“Without question their commitment to safety is evident in their investment in our programs,” said Heath Cohen, Victor Valley College Fire Academy Chief for the Regional Public Safety Training Center. “We couldn’t be more thankful to San Manuel for their continued support and we value their partnership.” Three of the programs at the RPSTC will

Standards and Training (POST) has phased out the use of current testing methods – scantrons – and requires all POST training providers to use electronic testing through the use of laptop computers. These computers will also be available for research, report writing and review of study materials. The Administration of Justice program serves more than 800 students annually and the computers will assist
