Alamo Area College Access & Completion Consortium (AACA&CC)

Our Vision

The vision of the AACA&CC is to build relationships to forge academic and career pathways among school districts, higher education institutions, community-based organizations, and civic and business leadership to promote greater student success outcomes.

Annual Summit

The AACA&CC coordinates an annual summit that includes representatives from all partners serving on various planning committees to develop the theme, program, and speakers for the event.   

The summit is an opportunity to convene a large constituency of stakeholders to collaborate and develop collective impact strategies to build momentum toward addressing the educational and economic needs of our mutual service region.
