The Senior Leadership Academy (SLA), under the direction of Dr. Alvetta Thomas and her team, provides an optimal avenue for success at the technical college and system level. The leadership academy contributes to my personal goal of ensuring the continued support of the college mission, the TCSG, and most importantly, my role in leadership to support workforce development through student success. Again, I am humbled by this opportunity and look forward to continued growth and development to support our college, our system, our students, and our communities.”
The academy is designed to encourage professional growth and career enhancement. The program supports the leadership development goals of TCSG and its 22 colleges.
