The program promotes American prosperity and expands American influence by advancing U.S. technical and vocational education globally through the exchange of foreign government officials and senior administrators in higher education to the United States to examine the key tenets of U.S. community college administration and to witness innovative approaches to address current global workforce development needs. The program advances U.S. higher education models, promotes American values among foreign participants, and provides professional development for key foreign officials responsible for designing higher education systems that will educate the burgeoning youth bulge. The program advances internationalization efforts at U.S. community colleges and fosters a global network between and among U.S. and foreign administrators in vocational-technical education, building bridges to support U.S. competitiveness.

The Community College Administrator Program will support the development of higher education in one or more countries by expanding the capacity of key educators and administrators to strengthen technical and vocational institutions that serve diverse audiences that may include economically disadvantaged and historically underserved populations. The program should focus on exploring the U.S. community college model and its flexibility to respond to local, regional, and national education needs. The program should also share how community colleges expand access to higher education and work with business and industry in ways that meet local workforce and community needs.

The goals of the CCAP are as follows:

The CCAP will contribute to the improvement of post-secondary vocational-technical education in the selected country(ies) and the United States.
Participants completing the CCAP will have a thorough understanding of the American community college model and insight into its elements that may be of use in improving their own post-secondary vocational-technical institutions.
Participants will advance their administrative skills in such areas as governance, finance, leadership, student services, program evaluation, technology, workforce development, community engagement, distance learning, and private sector partnerships.
The CCAP will benefit the foreign institutions whose leaders are selected for participation and indirectly benefit other such institutions in the country selected. Alumni will put new knowledge to use in improving their own institutions and their country’s vocational-technical educational system.
The CCAP will enhance the ability of U.S. community colleges to further internationalize their outlook and programs.
The CCAP will contribute to fostering mutual understanding between citizens of the United States and citizens of other countries.
