Complaint Processes
Pima Community College, in its goal to provide quality instruction and service, provides students access to appropriate College staff and administration to resolve questions and concerns about PCC staff, policies, procedures, or other actions or inactions of the College.
Students are strongly encouraged to resolve any concern by talking with the individual or faculty member and his/her supervisor if necessary.

- Distance Education/Online Students Outside the State of Arizona can access the support of AZ SARA. Prior to registering a non-instructional complaint with AZ SARA Council, the student must complete PCC's official complaint process.
