Register now for new job skills and educational goals.

Start the New Year on a path to success by registering to learn a new job skill, or get on track for a whole new career at Mesa Community College (MCC).

Offering flexibility in scheduling for students as well as safety, spring semester classes are available online and in virtual learning formats.

Classes start Jan. 16with additional Flex Start classes beginning in February and March.Enroll now, conveniently from wherever you access the internet, to secure the classes on the days and times you want.

Earn qualifications to advance in your job with classes such as managerial accounting, business communications, supply chain management, industrial safety, Excel or Adobe Photoshop.

If you are looking to enter or upskill your position in the Information Technology field, you’ll find the MCC Downtown Center’s East Valley IT Institute courses are ideal for working professionals.

Or perhaps feed your spirit with a fun class like creative writing, outdoor adventure skills, forensic anthropology, hip hop, American Indian History, or whatever sparks your interest.

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) has always been a hallmark of the MCC Red Mountain curriculum. Science studies include health care programs that offer certificates and training to quickly move into careers such as emergency medical technician (EMT), dental hygienist and nurse assisting. In partnership with MCC’s sister institution, Gateway Community College, phlebotomy training is now available as well. 

Learn Your Way

MCC spring class formats are online or via a virtual face-to-face known as Live Online. A few classes requiring an in-person lab are held on campus or in a hybrid combo of on-campus and online. Find details about the class types at mesacc.edu/class-formats.

If you have an appointment or on-campus class, you are required to wear a face covering or mask, display a college ID badge or a photo ID, and maintain recommended physical distancing of 6 feet or more where possible. Health, safety and cleaning protocols exceed federal and state recommendations.

Strategies are being employed to ensure safe distancing on campus. For example, one nurse assisting class has 18 students in the Live Online lecture with the on-campus class divided into two classes of nine students for each of the in-person labs, allowing ample room among attendees. Students are thriving in these new class formats. The first nurse assisting class learning during the pandemic just graduated with 100 percent passing the state exams.  

Student Services

Register for classes online. Please don’t come to campus to register unless you have an appointment. MCC student enrollment and support services are available via web, chat and phone. Visit mesacc.edu/students/virtual-services for more information.

Due to COVID-19 safety measures, our campuses are open only to students attending on-campus classes and those with an appointment, as well as MCC staff. Drive-by pickup is available for services such as the Library and the Mesa Market free student food pantry.
