The Institutional Effectiveness Partnership Initiative (IEPI) is a collaborative effort to help advance the institutional effectiveness of California Community Colleges. The IEPI has asked all California Community Colleges to have a conversation about several metrics that reflect different aspects of the College’s operations. IVC’s Institutional Effectiveness Committee has reviewed these metrics and has established goals for the coming year. These goals will be monitored and discussed by the Institutional Effectiveness Committee and any changes will be reported to the college community.

As one of California's leading community colleges and one of Orange County's best known educational institutions, we provide students exceptional educational opportunities in outstanding facilities and an extraordinary faculty and staff.

Location: 5500 Irvine Center Drive, Irvine, CA 92618. IVC is located at the corner of Jeffrey Road and Irvine Center Drive. 

Vision

Irvine Valley College is a premier educational institution that provides students avenues for success through exceptional services and dynamic partnerships.

Welcome to IVC!

Irvine Valley College (IVC) combines a small-college environment with more than 60 acres of modern facilities and equipment; dedicated staff; and an excellent faculty who combine knowledge and experience with a sincere commitment to learning. After its creation as a satellite campus in 1979, IVC became an independent institution in 1985, and has seen its transfer rates and campus community flourish.
