Presidential Search

The Search Committee outlined and agreed to the following actions for the Presidential Search:

  1. The College will host three campus-wide forums to offer faculty and staff an opportunity to share what characteristics they would like to see in a new President. Two forums will be held on the Victoria Road campus, and one on the Madison County campus.
  2. An electronic survey will be sent to all employees to complete for the Committee to use as input for final decision-making.
  3. The new President of A-B Tech will be required to live in either Buncombe or Madison County.
  4. The Board Secretary will take notes at each forum, and create a profile of what the College is looking for in a President. The profile will be presented to the full Board.
  5. All applications will be anonymous and directed to the Campbell Shatley Law Firm. After the application cut-off date, all applications will be compiled and forwarded to the full Board for final selection.
