Advisory Committees
Each instructional program maintains contact with private industry through its occupational advisory committee. An advisory committee is comprised of members of the business and industry community with interest in the college’s mission and the specific program. Committee members are usually employers of program graduates. The committee meets twice annually and assures that desirable, relevant, and current practices of the occupation are being taught. The committee may also review the educational program, recommend admission requirements, program content, program length, program objectives, competency tests, instructional materials, equipment, method of evaluation, level of skills and/or proficiency required for completion, and appropriateness of the delivery mode for the program.
