Jose F. Valencia

Jose Valencia (born December 2, year unknown) is the President of ASA College with locations in Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Hialeah, FL. He began his presidential tenure in August 2018 as co-president and was named sole President in March 2019. Under his leadership, ASA College rejoined the national organization, Career Education Colleges and Universities (CECU). He had previously served as ASA's Comptroller from 2009 to 2012, and as CFO from 2012 to 2018, during the college's accreditation by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. Prior to his work with ASA, he had been appointed CEO of the New York Association for New Americans in 2004 when the organization reshaped itself as the number of refugees from the former Soviet Union declined.

On June 20, 2019, he was the recipient of an honorary citation from the Russian American Foundation and the Office of the Brooklyn Borough President for his lifelong contributions to the improvement of Russian-speaking communities via his work with NYANA and the many students of Russian descent who have attended ASA College.
