Departments provide an opportunity for community college employees with similar job responsibilities to enhance their professional skills and knowledge and to network, share and recognize exemplary practices with colleagues from the state’s 12 community college districts and their 19 campuses. Each department has its own elected officers and governance structure for organizational purposes to plan department activities and support the overall mission and purposes of MCCA. The elected leadership (Vice President and above) of each department serves on the Association’s Board of Directors.Departments usually meet at least twice a year to provide programs of interest to department members and to recognize colleagues and programs of an exemplar nature. The departments provide the primary vehicle for MCCA to fulfill its mission of sharing knowledge and expertise to improve the colleges educational programs, curriculum development, innovative administrative and instructional techniques, and general professional environment of the state’s outstanding community colleges.
