Community Colleges (Week 1) - National/Regional/Local Community College Associations & Organizations

TACUSPA Members, 
 
This week, we will examine the following:
- The Texas Association of Community Colleges (TACC)'s list of National and Local Associations and Resources
- A List of Community Colleges in Texas
 

The Texas Association of Community Colleges (TACC)
This organization includes over 50 public community college districts in Texas.This organization's principal concern is the General Appropriations Bill and legislation affecting community colleges in Texas.

TACC Overview
The TACC website (http://www.tacc.org/) also includes website links to each of the public community colleges in Texas (http://www.tacc.org/tcc_links.htm).

TACC Job Bank
Another great feature of this website is the job bank (http://www.tacc.org/job_bank.htm). This job bank provides links to the human resources webpage of each of the public community colleges in Texas.

TACC - Virtual College of Texas
A final feature of the TACC website is the Virtual College of Texas (VCT) link - (http://www.tacc.org/vct.htm). The VCT is a list of each of the internet courses offered at each of the public community colleges in Texas. This feature enables current and future community college students to take several internet courses at one time from several different universities.

Here are some other great links from the TACC website:
