Advisory Council

The primary purpose of the local advisory council is to assist educators in establishing, operating, and evaluating programs that serve the needs of students, business and industry, and to provide expertise pertaining to technological change.  The advisory council will evaluate and make recommendations pertaining to the following items: course sequences, industry-based certifications, facilities and equipment, curriculum, and work-based learning.
