Policies & Procedures

Wenatchee Valley College policies and procedures provide the college community with a written record of current board policies and college operational procedures. Although the policies and procedures are established primarily to guide and assist employees in performing their assigned functions, many policies and procedures have wide applicability - they affect both academic and administrative areas, all employees, or the activities of the college as they relate to students, alumni, the community and the general public.

Policies and procedures are generally applicable to more than one department or division of the college. Matters that pertain only to the internal policies, procedures, practices or guidelines of a given department or division are not considered within the scope of board policy or college operational procedure and are therefore omitted.

All policies and procedures WILL SOON be available below as downloadable Word documents by clicking on the policy or procedure number. Clicking on the title of the policy or procedure will take you to the related webpage.
