Our Special Goal
We don’t just give students an education and experiences that set them up for success in a career but also we help them succeed in their career to discover a field they’re passionate about and dare to lead it.
Golden Gate College mission is to offer to global learners first rate English language and communication skills with the most advanced sciences and technologies in a friendly and dynamic environment. We achieve our mission through multi-level evaluations of our faculty, institution and programs.
INSTITUTIONAL LEARNING OUTCOMES
This mission is achieved by meeting the following goals, which are the cornerstones of
the academic programs:
1. Academic Excellence:
Students will develop and demonstrate the ability to integrate academic theory and
practice, master technical and humanistic literacy, think critically, analytically, and
creatively, and will apply this ability to the tasks of collecting, analyzing, and
evaluating data; students will also develop self-learning and research capacity.
2. Personal Growth:
Students develop problem solving, communication and team work skills as well as
the capacity of continuity of learning and self-improvement.
3. Social Engagement:
Students will develop and demonstrate a sense of social responsibility and
engagement in the field of study. As part of their growth, students will develop and
articulate the ethical standards which will guide their professional and personal

Golden Gate College was founded in September 1979. The school and its Intensive English Programs (IEP) have been accredited by ACCET – Accrediting Council for Continuing Education and Training since 2003.
With the 40-year experience and expertise, we envision our institution can inspire further not only by teaching English language but also by applying language mastery in more effective and efficient ways through degree education, supported by modern sciences, technologies and tools so that our global learners can understand people better, apply the language better, serve others better, improve their self-awareness, advance their career in communication, media, marketing, human resources, etc., build the skills to lead purposeful change, and tap into an influential professional network. These new programs will be a greatly improved platform to further our students’ careers. Knowing how to strategically apply psychology, communication skills, media and research tools in organizational and business settings can open many career opportunities in growing fields.
We are very proud of the success of our students and we believe their success is a result of the high-quality education and training at Golden Gate College, our committed instructors and administrators, and the resources we provide to every student.
Students are the primary focus in campus life. Their welfare and the conditions under which they study, work, and relax must be safeguarded to preserve their rights under the United States Constitution, federal laws, and California statutes. Campus policies and procedures seek to guarantee these civil liberties. Student understanding and cooperation are essential to the successful implementation of this legal structure.
