Community college is where ambition meets opportunity – and for hundreds of thousands of students across North Carolina, it is the most powerful engine of social and economic mobility available. Join two college presidents as they speak about what it means to lead institutions that carry that promise, and what they actually did to deliver – increasing access, aligning pathways to credentials of value, graduating more students into careers with family-sustaining wages – and building the data infrastructure to act before it is too late. Participants will leave equipped with practical strategies and ideas to replicate at their institutions.
