We are pleased to announce that Ventura College has been presented with two awards of excellence this year, from the California Colleges Board of Governors and the Ventura County Economic Development Association.
“We are so proud of our faculty, staff and administrators for their tireless work to help improve the college experience for our students. These awards are a nod to their remarkable efforts,” said Ventura College President Dr. Kimberly Hoffmans. “Our success as a college equates to the continued success of our students.”
The California Community Colleges Board of Governors honored Ventura College with a 2020-2021 Exemplary Program Award for the Faculty Academy for “Equitable Practices in a Virtual Educational Environment.” The Faculty Academy Program at Ventura College was recognized for promoting student engagement in a culturally inclusive manner and for their efforts in addressing equity gaps and misperceptions around students’ technology abilities.
