Management Information Systems (MIS)

Whether personal or organizational, every mission is first envisioned, and every vision needs goals to be accomplished. In order for goals to be fulfilled, the individual or the organization must know the objectives behind each one of them and take whatever necessary action to start getting the desired results. To shine a light on the topic and to further understand the reason for the existence of MIS, it might first help to know its mission statement. For clarity's sake, we’ve developed two versions of the mission statement, -- a short one, and an expanded version.

"To assist GCC-GUAM COMMUNITY COLLEGE in accomplishing its mission by supporting overall goals and objectives through automation and technology". And for the expanded version: " To maintain, support, and keep up-to-date GCC-GUAM COMMUNITY COLLEGE's information infrastructure needs through a

1.) effective management of computer technology and related resources;
2.) acquisition, integration and deployment of hardware and software; and
3.) hiring, training and retaining managerial, technical, and operational personnel.”
