It’s time to register for the NCACCT Leadership Seminar – to be held August 21-23 in Wilmington!

Please join us at the North Carolina coast this summer for the 2019 NCACCT Leadership Seminar!  This will be the perfect opportunity for new and experienced Trustees, along with Presidents, to learn about successful initiatives taking place at community colleges across NC and best practices related to apprenticeship programs, regional business collaborations and effective fund-raising for Foundations and community engagement.

Our keynote luncheon speaker on Thursday will be Mr. Scott Stump, Assistant Secretary for Career, Technical, and Adult Education at the U.S. Department of Education.  Assistant Secretary Stump will discuss the Department’s areas of interest, his goals for community colleges, and the challenges and opportunities facing our institutions. There will also be a session supported by the Belk Center at NC State that will focus on education leaders’ roles in student success.

The Board Chairs Only meeting will again be held on Wednesday, and we are working with the NC Association of Community College Presidents to ensure time and space is available for meetings specifically for Presidents.  For your convenience, those of you who need Ethics Training can attend that training session immediately following the breakfast session on Friday.  We are also excited to host special entertainment at our Thursday night reception courtesy of Jackie Gore, founder of The Embers and co-writer of many beach music hits, including “I Love Beach Music”.  We look forward to ensuring that the seminar is a valuable training and networking event for all community college leaders across the state.

Be sure to mark your calendars and register for this exciting event!  Click here for more information or to register.
