Pillar 02

Partnerships

Expanding collaborative partnerships and strategic alliances to meet regional needs.

NCC is a college built on partnerships – with businesses, organizations, state and local governments and area four-year colleges. Expanding on those partnerships is key to providing students with the best possible experience while preparing them for success. Broadening awareness of NCC’s programs and services, to grow engagement with the college, remains an important step in attracting partnerships and increasing the institution’s impact.

Goal

NCC is the region’s go-to educational solutions provider, enjoying omni-directional awareness and strategic partnerships that link the college with organizations to address workforce education and training needs.

Key Initiatives

We will...

  • increase outreach with area business and organizations to create alliances that address workforce needs and offer NCC students new opportunities for skills development and employment pathways.
  • develop a college-wide community engagement strategy that coordinates our presence in the region to better promote learning options at NCC, reinforce our commitment to DEI, and showcase the breadth of opportunities NCC offers.
  • invest in expanded marketing efforts to build NCC’s brand in the region, reinforcing it as a valuable asset and the preferred option to address educational and training needs.
