Welcome

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, faculty, and staff of Chipola College, welcome to the Chipola website. We invite you to visit our beautiful campus, learn about our excellent programs, and meet our dedicated faculty and staff through the pages of this site.

Chipola has a rich tradition of strong academic and workforce programs, with an outstanding faculty committed to developing each student's full potential for success.

Whether your goals are to enjoy personal enrichment courses, learn a new occupation, or to earn a college degree, Chipola has something for you. As the higher education source for five counties, we hope that you will consider Chipola for all your education and training needs.

Chipola is known for transferring quality students to fine universities like the University of Florida, Florida State and the University of West Florida, among others. The University Center @ Chipola also makes it possible to earn Bachelor's, Master's and other advanced degrees here on the Chipola campus.

Our Workforce Development programs offer associate degrees and certifications in several fields in addition to offering worker retraining and employee development for area employers.

The personal attention of a small college with University advantages -- that's what Chipola is all about. Our low student-to-faculty ratio allows Chipola to offer individualized attention that helps our students thrive.

I encourage you to discover the many opportunities available to you at Chipola. To ensure you succeed, we offer a variety of support services including academic and career counseling, tutoring, financial aid, on-site child care, as well as services for students with special challenges.

We appreciate your interest in Chipola College and we look forward to working with you to meet your educational goals.

Dr. Gene Prough,
President
