The Conference on Community College Excellence…
… provides an opportunity for colleagues from regional colleges to reflect collectively on our mission as institutions of education and on our individual roles as faculty, staff, and administrators.
This conference aims to spearhead dialogues between community colleges and four-year colleges as partners, by focusing on the connections between student success and institutional capacity and service.
