Overview of AACC during the COVID-19 pandemic

Jen Worth with the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) and Craig McAtee with National Coalition of Advanced Technology presented during our weekly Monday calls on December 6, 2021. Jen explained how AACC is the membership organization for all community colleges across the country. During the pandemic, they saw a lot of innovation happen within the colleges because they were forced to change their models. Craig’s team dives deeper than Jen’s team can when it comes to manufacturing and IT. They have 45 corporate strategic partners as well as 180 community colleges in their network that focus on advanced technology and manufacturing everyday.
