Tennessee Valley Corridor community colleges align

7/13/2012

More than 30 community colleges in the five-state Tennessee Valley Corridor have formed an alliance to work more closely together on grants and economic development.

Lou Rabinowitz of Roane State Community College proposed the unified effort with a goal of securing more national grants, improving workforce development programs and better serving employers in the region. The project is called the TVC Community College Consortium.

Colleges from 10 congressional districts in Alabama, Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia will be participating.
