Snead State Hosts Visit from Alabama Leadership Academy

Twenty participants with the 2011-2012 Alabama Leadership Academy visited Snead State Community College on Thursday, Dec. 1.

Snead President Dr. Robert Exley and members of the President’s Cabinet provided an overview of key initiatives at the College including the development and implementation of the Campus Master Plan, the Strategic Planning process, and the development of the Student Success and Career Center (SSCC@SSCC).

“The Alabama Leadership Academy involves up-and-coming leaders in community college education. We appreciate the opportunity to share with them our efforts to promote student success through our planning process and our programs,” said Dr. Exley.

The group toured the Norton Social Sciences Building and the SSCC@SSCC before dining in the cafeteria.

Established in 2000, the Alabama Leadership Academy is co-sponsored by the University of Alabama Colleges of Continuing Studies and Education in cooperation with the Alabama Community College System, the University of Alabama System, and the Alabama Commission on Higher Education.  The mission of the Alabama Leadership Academy is to prepare community college leaders by enhancing their leadership and management skills for an environment of change and to promote active partnership within postsecondary education.
