Career Advisory Committees

Purpose of the Advisory Committees 

An advisory committee is a group of representatives and leaders from our education, business, government, and industry communities who advise and assist the faculty and administrators of the Wayne County Community College District.

Advisory Committee members are charged with the task of reviewing their assigned program area description, syllabi, career potential, admission requirements, program prerequisites classes and District certificate and/or degree requirements to determine if they align with current trends of the industry. 

Specifically, the advisory committee members advise the District on the following:

• Program evaluations and needs assessments based on market trends.
• Curriculum revisions to ensure the most current and relevant information is being taught.
• Recruitment and retention of diverse faculty members and student populations.
• Procurement of program resources, equipment and facilities for instruction. 
• Procurement of external learning experiences and employment opportunities where students may learn and apply their knowledge and skills.
• Professional development of faculty through workshops, conferences, and other opportunities.
• Marketing of the District’s programs, services and resources to business, governmental agencies, and community groups
