Academy Philosophy
Core Values of the Service


photo_phil_valuesIn 1994 the Coast Guard formally articulated the core values that the service holds dear. These are embraced here at the academy as well. Our core values are:

Honor - Integrity is our standard. We demonstrate uncompromising ethical conduct and moral behavior in all our personal actions. We are loyal and accountable to the public trust.

Respect - We value our diverse work force. We treat each other with fairness, dignity, and compassion. We encourage individual opportunity and growth. We encourage creativity through empowerment. We work as a team.

Devotion to Duty - We are professionals, military and civilian, who seek responsibility, accept accountability, and are committed to the successful achievement of our organizational goals. We exist to serve. We serve with pride.
