Program Advisory Committees
MCC Associate Deans (Business/Applied Science and Health Occupations) and faculty of Career and Technical Education Programs (CTE) work in conjunction with Program Advisory Committees made up of community members, area business persons, and professionals who have expertise in that program. The Advisory Committee members review changes and new programs and courses along with the faculty and provide input from the business community on what is needed in the workforce. Their participation is a vital asset to the college and its students as they keep programs abreast of new technologies and practices as well as needs of the businesses in the service area.

The Committee is also charged with dissemination of curriculum and program changes throughout the college and advises about the effect of college policies upon courses and programs.
