Economic and Workforce Development highlighted at State Board meeting

Presidential search continues

 

RALEIGH -The State Board of Community Colleges meets this week in Raleigh in the Caswell

Building.  The two-day session begins with Committee meetings on Thursday, September 20. 

 

The Thursday Issues Luncheon features Economic and Workforce Vice President Willa Dickens who will present a report on the accomplishments of her division over the last year.  Dickens will also give the Board a look at initiatives planned for the future.  The division includes the BioNetwork, New and Expanding Industry Training, Small Business, Continuing Education, and Human Resources Development.

 

The search for a new System President has crossed a major point in the process: the closing date for applications.  The Presidential Search Committee begins reviewing the applications and will compose interview questions for the selected candidates.

 

Among the items the Board will consider are a proposed increase in the Student Activity Fee, the criteria community colleges must meet to submit an application for a Facilities and Equipment Grant, and a brand new curriculum program in Alternative Energy Technology: Biofuels at Central Carolina Community College.
