NATIONAL UNIVERSITY

The foundational base of the National University 2023 Strategic Plan is that students are at the center of everything we do. This perspective is infused in the University’s mission, vision, values, and priorities, which continue to serve as guiding principles that will allow us to reach our maximum potential.

Values
Our ability to create the ultimate student experience hinges upon the capacity to truly know our students as learners through both instructor-based personalized learning approaches and ever more sophisticated assessments and data utilization.
Quality
Academic quality is paramount to student success. To best achieve this value, we offer a highly supportive student experience that guides learners on their educational journey
to the completion of a degree or certificate program.
Innovation
The contribution of new knowledge is central to the purpose of a modern university. Our valued commitment to innovating within higher education advances opportunities for our students, and all students, within higher education.
Collaboration
Partnering to meet the needs of students provides the most relevant and valued outcome. Whether with potential employers, community agencies, or partnering across disciplines within our own University, we are committed to working together toward student success.
Diversity
We are enriched by the extraordinarily diverse student body, faculty, and staff. Diversity of background, orientation, and thought are necessary and valued elements of a learned society. We proactively seek and support diversity within our entire enterprise.
Access
We believe that access to education is a fundamental right. Barriers to access can be finances, preparation, or simple logistics. We aspire to remove barriers to access as a means of creating social justice and a path toward a more productive life for our students.
