About the new Community College Policy Center Web site:
The Academy for Educational Development (AED), Iowa State University and the Education Commission of the States (ECS) have joined forces to reconstitute the Community College Policy Center, a national policy clearinghouse that will provide critical support to state and federal policymakers and community college leaders as a one-stop resource for information and policy research focused on how states can fully leverage their community colleges as engines of economic development and educational opportunity.
We will continue to revamp the Community College Policy Center Web site and add more information in the coming months.
