Paradise Valley Community College is one of ten Arizona colleges, two skill centers, and multiple satellite locations, which comprise the Maricopa County Community College District located throughout metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona.

The District was established in 1962, with a single college and has since grown to serve over 277,174 students in credit and non-credit programs making it the largest provider of that post-secondary education in the state of Arizona. Today, the district's Arizona colleges and centers offer comprehensive educational programs in professional, occupational, special interest, and continuing education curricula to serve the needs of the rapidly growing county area.

This, Paradise Valley Community College believes, will make it easier for high school students to transition to university and for working students to get the job skills needed through a range of counseling, advising, tutoring and student services.
