HENRY COUNTY, VA – Patrick & Henry Community College is one of the best colleges in the nation to work for, according to the Great Colleges to Work For program.
The results are based on a survey of 194 colleges and universities.
In all, 72 of those institutions achieved the recognition for specific best practices and policies.
Results are reported for small, medium, and large institutions, with P&HCC included among the small universities.
“Patrick & Henry Community College is a great college to work for because we are on a mission to empower our students and their families to achieve economic success. We do this by providing education and training that leads to high demand jobs with wages that can support a family. In other words, we don't just award degrees, we award "J-O-B" degrees - credentials that open the door to real, tangible career opportunities in our community,” said P&HCC President Dr. Greg Hodges.
The community college won honors in 6 categories this year: Job satisfaction and support, professional development, compensation and benefits, mission and pride, faculty experience, and confidence in senior leadership.
P&H said it was also named to the Great Colleges Honor Roll, a status granted to only 42 colleges each year who are highlighted most across the recognition categories.
The program is one of the largest and most respected workplace-recognition programs in the country, the community college said in news release.
