Community colleges are one of the fastest growing segments in higher education today. A national emphasis on the role of community colleges and the drain of community college administrators, due to retirements, means that you, as an educator, may be standing at the door of opportunity.

Designed to meet the professional needs of community college administrators, faculty, staff, and those who seek such positions, Ball State’s graduate certificate in community college leadership is one of only a few offered in the United States.
