Elevate NAU Statewide and Regional Program Development
Career Readiness
NAU’s 100% Career Ready initiative helps graduates succeed in today's changing job market. Through practical skills, adaptability training, and well-designed academic programs, we prepare students for the real-world challenges they’ll face after graduation. Your generosity will go a long way toward preparing graduates for lives of purpose and careers of consequence—helping Lumberjacks build meaningful careers, support their families, and make a difference in their communities. Give today to the 100% Career Ready Fund to support this initiative.

SIA is a pivotal entity within the university, providing direction and leadership in advancing policy and strategic goals related to Statewide and Regional program development and design. SIA ensures that systems and processes are in place to support flexible and market-driven offerings, as well as community college transfer plans, spanning the Northern, Southeastern, and Central regions of Arizona. Give today to the NAU Statewide Impact Fund to support this initiative.
