The mission of the American Samoa Community College is to enable successful student learning by providing high quality programs that meet the educational needs of its students and American Samoa. The American Samoa Community College is an accredited, open-admission, co-educational, post-secondary, Land Grant institution with programs leading to associate degrees and certificates. The College's programs fall into five areas: 1. Programs transferable to other institutions of higher learning, 2. Human resources development in preparation for employment, 3. Instruction for the educationally underserved and community extension programs, 4. Research in human and natural resources, and 5. Programs in the study of Samoa and the Pacific. The College recognizes its critical role in developing the human capital necessary for American Samoa's economic development and is thus committed to the continuous improvement of American Samoa's workforce.
