Colleagues, this special program track on rural community colleges is an opportunity to share what you are doing to support rural communities and our students.
Rural community colleges face a number of acute challenges, including recruitment and retention of qualified faculty, access to broadband internet, and transportation issues to name a few. Despite these challenges, rural community colleges also have great potential to lessen the impact of education deserts, drive economic growth and help sustain vibrant communities. In partnership with the Rural Community College Alliance, ACCT seeks sessions that offer proven practices, local or state solutions that have helped strengthen your institution and community. The deadline for program submissions is July 1, 2020
The conference will take place from September 30 – October 3, 2020 in Chicago, IL. Learn more, submit your proposal, and register at https://congress.acct.org/
