The Board of Trustees and Presidential Search Committee of HACC, Central Pennsylvania's Community College, invite nominations and applications for the position of President. HACC is the state's largest and oldest community college, with locations on five campuses and online offerings. The next President will begin in July 2025 or earlier. The President must demonstrate a deep understanding of the intricate landscape of higher education, particularly community colleges, and chart a clear path for HACC's continued regional and national prominence as the premier community college of Pennsylvania. The new President will foster existing and new relationships with health care and other industries that will benefit both students and community members. The President will continue a tradition of successful fundraising to sustain the financial stability of the College and the opportunities for students. Someone passionate about access, equity, diversity, and innovative pathways to higher education will find rich stories to tell and shape in the work being done at HACC. This is a remarkable opportunity for a skilled, experienced leader eager to connect with the five campuses serving the communities of south-central Pennsylvania. The next President has the opportunity to begin the College's next chapter, collaborating with dedicated employees, community partners, and regional elected officials to further define HACC's place regionally and nationally. In this era of rapid technological, demographic, political, and educational change, the President will lead discussions and decisions about how the College's purpose—"learning for all; learning for life"—can positively impact the next generations of students and workers in the region. The Board of Trustees and College community seek someone with a balance of executive presence, genuine caring, and clear, strong communication to engage and inspire the College and region.
