At the heart of a skilled workforce is a strong educational system. From infancy throughout adulthood, Yuma County strives to continually educate and improve our children and labor force alike. Yuma County offers public, private, and charter schools which is a testament to the Yuma Educational Consortium. This is a collaborative effort among AWC, NAU-Yuma, Yuma School District One and Yuma Union High School District. The institutions share programs, resources, services and personnel to achieve greater lifelong learning opportunities of the highest quality for all.

For those who go on to college or for professionals seeking additional education or degrees, several higher education institutions are in the area. Arizona Western College (AWC), a two-year community college, shares its campus with Northern Arizona University (NAU), Yuma, a four-year institution. AWC offers Associates degrees, Certificate and non-transfer programs in several professional and technical areas. NAU offers over twenty-four bachelor's and ten master's degree programs, a doctoral degree program and more than 10 endorsements and certificates. Collectively, these institutions continue to produce a highly educated workforce.
