President

Welcome to the Alabama Community College Association (ACCA) website!

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to another year of growth, collaboration, and opportunity as we prepare for our Annual Conference and a series of professional development events.  ACCA proudly serves as the professional development arm for the Alabama Community College System, and we are dedicated to meeting the diverse needs of all our stakeholders.  We believe that Alabama Community College’s achievements and progress is directly tied to the broader success and development of the State as a whole.  For that reason, we have adopted the theme for the 2025 Conference: Our Story, Alabama’s Success. 

This year, we are offering unique opportunities to equip our institutions with the tools and insight necessary to shape the future of the Alabama Community College System.  Through collaboration, innovation, and professional development, we aim to continue enhancing the quality of life for learners from all walks of life---whether they are pursuing degrees, enhancing their skills, or entering the workforce, we are here to support them every step of the way.

We are doing incredible work, but we are unwavering in our commitment to fostering educational excellence in every area of our institutions.  The ACCA Executive Committee will continue to focus on key areas such as student success, faculty and instructional support, administration, and workforce development.  Together, we will create a stronger, more resilient educational landscape that responds to the evolving needs of our students, our economy, and our communities.

I look forward to engaging with all of you as we work together to build a brighter future for all.
