CMCC advisory committees meet to strategize programs, partnerships

A breakfast meeting for all academic program advisory committees was held recently at Central Maine Community College. Pictured discussing the Architectural and Civil Engineering program are, from left, Pam Remieres-Morin, dean of finance and administration at CMCC; Chris Branch, Portland public works director; and Dan Marino, chairman of the ACE program. Committee members Kelly Packard of Living Space Consultants and Frank Crabtree from Harriman have their backs to the camera. All programs at CMCC have an advisory committee consisting of representatives of those organizations and businesses that employ graduates of the college. In addition to assisting with program planning and development, committee members provide helpful information about jobs and employment trends, educational opportunities, and serve as an important communications link between employers and the college.
