Our Mission
Coordination
The Community College Commissioners and staff provide coordination across the system on all new program approvals, strategic planning, administrative rule making, consortium contracting, as well as creating system-wide goals and initiatives.
Advocacy
In addition, they advocate for both the colleges and their students, highlighting their pursuit of access, progress, and attainment of educational goals and objectives.
Funding
Through the use of a collaboratively developed funding allocation model, legislative appropriations are distributed using certain performance metrics that recognize achievement toward those adopted system-wide goals.
Accountability
Accountability is achieved through the use of a centralized data warehouse, a system-wide data dictionary, and provided reporting tools that create transparent, real-time reporting capabilities along with the ability to perform predictive analytics of both student success and employment probabilities.
Structure
Commissioners are responsible for ensuring compliance with general coordinating, administrative, approval, review and reporting, and implementation functions in accordance with Wyoming statutes.
The Commissioners are assisted in these duties by the Executive Director and a staff of 11 other employees who are responsible for activities related to Commission Strategic Plan implementation, meeting support, administrative support, information gathering, and computing support for administrative hardware and software systems provided by the Commission to the eight colleges.
The Executive Director and commission staff work with various councils at the colleges in accordance with the WCCC Policy on Consultation. Councils include the Executive Council, Academic Affairs Council, Administrative Services Council, Chief Information Officers Council, Data Governance/Institutional Research Council, and Student Services Council.
