Remember finishing high school? That was a long time ago, right? When we got out of high school, we had dreams, plans, a future in mind. That vision could have included a career, or it was focused around the life we wanted. Maybe it was just the adventures we wanted to experience. Whatever it was, high school was over, and now it was time for life to begin!

The Importance of Creativity
People today have inflated the importance of science and math and trivialized creativity and the humanities and arts. This attitude is transforming colleges from educational centers focused on creating young people of character and wisdom to training centers preparing people to be employees ready to transition into the workforce as soon as possible.

How We Inspire...
“Kauai Community College is a Kahua that inspires, engages, and empowers learners and educators to enrich our community and our world.” This mission statement encapsulates the college’s goals, and moreover, what we as Accounting Program educators strive to accomplish
in the classroom.
Are you living on Kaua’i and working two or more jobs just to make ends meet? Have you considered creating your own website or sprucing-up an existing one, but held off because of all the overwhelming options and hidden costs of so-called “free” website development programs?
The ubiquity of live events comes from the unparalleled excitement while experiencing music, engaging presenters, dance and theatrical performances. Kaua’i is a hub for talented musicians and artists who bring us together at their live performances to enrich our lives. Well before any professional event happens, technical specialists are hard at work planning the details needed to deliver a flawless event.
A common misconception is that creativity is innate and limited to a select few who are born with the creative gene. The fact is, however, anyone who is motivated to learn and practice new skills can leverage the latest digital technologies in graphics, music, photography, video and animation to create beautiful work. When personal drive is combined with a supportive learning space where new ideas are celebrated, boundless creativity happens.
