Atlanta - Albany Tech's Joy Knighton is one of 33 technical college executives from across the state of Georgia have been selected to take part in theTechnical College System of Georgia's (TCSG) Executive Leadership Academy for 2012 - 2013.
Joy Knighton, Dean of Academic Affairs for the Technology, Business, Personal and Public Services division at Albany Technical College, was nominated to attend the academy by Albany Technical College's President Dr. Anthony Parker, and TCSG Commissioner Ron Jackson approved the selection.
The academy is designed to acquaint participants with the leadership and managerial responsibilities of TCSG executives.
While the program is specifically geared to the policies and procedures of the TCSG, the curriculum is sufficiently broad in scope to have application to public two-year colleges in any state and includes topics ranging from ethics and board operations to institutional effectiveness, accreditation issues, strategic planning, and more.
"Knighton is responsible for a very large and active group of programs in Academic Affairs," said Pamela Heglar, Acting President at Albany Technical College. "Her participation in TCSG's Executive Leadership Academy will be very beneficial to her division and the College as a whole."
