trustee governance
CCATT is a premier source for community college governance training and research. We provide essential tools and strategies necessary to engage in effective board practice and leadership. Topics may include chair leadership, board governance, fiduciary responsibilities, risk management president succession planning, campus safety and more.

trustee advocacy
CCATT prepares and enables its members to be knowledgeable, trusted and successful advocates for the most pertinent and pressing policy issues on behalf of their institutions and students. We work jointly and collaboratively with TACC and TCCTA to develop a unified policy message and priorities. Our CCATT Legislative Committee leads this important work. Community College Day at the Texas Capitol is dedicated to sharing our state policy agenda with state legislators and their staff members. ACCT National Legislative Summit provides an opportunity to meet with members of Congress and their staff to share policy priorities and to learn how to effectively advocate for local and state community college issues.
