Wichita Area Technical College
Company Profile:
The mission of Wichita Area Technical College (WATC) is to provide relevant, technical education and training that meets the needs of learners, the community and industry while instilling a positive work ethic and desire for lifelong learning.
A means by which WATC demonstrates that it fulfills its mission lies in its ability to establish, measure and analyze student learning outcomes. WATC assessment encompasses student learning in technical education, general education and academic success. By creating a faculty-driven process for assessing student learning, WATC provides evidence for constant monitoring and improvement of academic offerings. Program faculty create assessment matrices that provide the framework for this process. Assessment reports, which include current assessment levels and practices for each program, are provided to administration and faculty.
Wichita Area Technical College (WATC) is dedicated to serving business and industry in south-central Kansas through the delivery of a comprehensive portfolio of programs and services. WATC faculty and staff strive to develop a highly trained workforce that gives Kansas employers a competitive advantage. WATC is committed to providing the training that is needed — where it is needed, when it is needed.
The college works closely with local and statewide industries to provide technologically advanced programs for our students. WATC can also offer customized training programs that are portable, modular and affordable, through a variety of delivery methods, including on-site and online, at any of its locations. Customized training options offer employers the ability to retrain, upgrade and attract a skilled workforce pool.
Every employee plays an important role, directly or indirectly, in the education of students and the reputation of the college. WATC considers every employee a recruiter and, as a result, seeks employees with a drive for excellence and a passion for student success.
WATC accepts applications only online and only for posted vacancies. Applications are completed in cooperation with HrePartners.
WATC places a high value on the professional development of its employees. Each employee is encouraged to receive a minimum of 20 hours of professional development each year. Specific attention is given to providing instructional support for new faculty members.
