The American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC) mission is to promote and increase awareness of the role of two-year colleges in mathematics education, and to:

• Ensure the preparation of mathematically and technologically literate citizens who are capable of making informed decisions, who have skills needed by business and industry, and who will continue to grow in their quantitative literacy;
  
  
• Lead the development and implementation of curricular, pedagogical, technological, and assessment standards for two-year college mathematics education;
  
  
• Offer multiple opportunities for the preparation and continuing professional development of a competent and diverse mathematics faculty skilled in a variety of teaching modalities addressing different learning styles;
  
  
• Provide a forum that facilitates professional networking, communication, policy determination, and action among individuals, affiliates, and other professional organizations; and
  
  
• Communicate the perspectives of two-year college mathematics education to public, business, and professional sectors.
