SC4 welcomes Michigan Occupational Deans Administrative Council to campus

PORT HURON – St. Clair County Community College today welcomes to campus occupational deans from 28 community colleges and universities across Michigan at its August 2018 Michigan Occupational Deans Administrative Council (MODAC) meeting.

The gathering takes place Aug. 9 and 10 at SC4 and throughout the community. It is aimed at addressing the future needs of Michigan’s workforce, employers and students by creating and improving partnerships, measuring success, improving curriculum and instructional development, and supporting professional development.

“We are pleased to host this year’s meeting and bring key occupational leaders in Michigan to our community,” said Chief Academic Officer Julie Armstrong. “This kind of strategic partnership among community colleges is key to having a greater impact on our workforce and economy in the years to come.”

MODAC meets five times per year to review Michigan occupational trends and workforce needs from a community college perspective in an effort to gain a better understanding of where community colleges fit in and how they might cohesively align to provide resources and fill gaps.
