Pasco-Hernando State College leaders attended the 2024 Association of Community College Trustees (ACCT) Leadership Conference from October 23 to 26 in Seattle, Wash. The conference is a professional growth opportunity for nearly 2,000 leaders from community colleges, government agencies, philanthropic entities, and other nonprofit organizations.
PHSC President Jesse Pisors, Ed.D., was joined by PHSC District Board of Trustees members Lee Maggard, Nicole Newlon, J.D., and John Allocco Jr., along with student representative Krista Knowles, to attend and speak at the conference. Pisors, Maggard and Newlon spoke at the conference during a breakout session. Their presentation focused on the transitional process of searching for, selecting and onboarding a new college president, a familiar topic for PHSC with the onboarding of Pisors as PHSC’s fifth president in February 2024.
The ACCT Leadership Conference is one of the largest professional development opportunities for community college leadership and is a valuable opportunity to share experiences and expertise, network with other leaders and learn new ways to further the education of our communities.
“This was a great opportunity to represent PHSC at this major national conference and to present on a topic that is important to college trustees from across the country,” said Pisors.
