Yukon Flats Center - (800)709-8566 or (907)662-2521

Welcome to the UAF IAC Yukon Flats Center - Be the change you want to see in the world!

The Yukon Flats Center’s original building was built in 1980. It is a single story log structure of 3,000 sq. ft. The building has a classroom/meeting area/lounge, with kitchen; three offices (two used by students for audio conference classes), another classroom (converted from the garage), small copy area, lobby/reception area, two restrooms, and utility rooms.

A new addition was completed in 2005. It is an academic wing, with two classrooms that can be combined into one classroom, computer lab, restroom, and utility rooms. Together, the original log building and its log faced addition total 6,326 SF.

A separate 762 SF alternative energy building was built in 2010. Located near the entrance to the Center, it has one large interior space, which is used as a classroom/workshop.

We serve about 1,320 people - 89% Alaskan Native, predominantly Gwich’in Athabascan. The median age of our students is 32. Many are working parents with small children. Our region includes Arctic Village, Beaver, Birch Creek, Central, Chalkyitsik, Circle, Fort Yukon, Stevens Village, and Venetie.

We offer the UAF Occupational Endorsement, Certificate, Associate and Baccalaureate degrees via distance delivery and local intensive courses. The Council of Athabascan Tribal Governments (CATG) Native American Career and Technical Education Program (NACTEP) funds most of the students taking distance courses and/or local intensives. The Yukon Flats School District also funds duel credit courses for High School students and sponsors courses to enhance the skills of their teaching and administrative staff.
