CCAA Advisory Council

The CCAA Advisory Council is the leadership group of the Alumni Association and is comprised of alumni volunteers who are committed to the success of the college. The advice given by this group is integral to the mission of the CCAA, which is to foster lasting relationships with students, alumni and friends worldwide.

Advisors are appointed to three-year terms in which they attend meetings throughout the year – traditionally, twice on main campus in Columbia, Missouri, and once virtually. The Director of Alumni Relations communicates regularly with advisors to help increase alumni affinity with the college.

Would you like to serve the CCAA? CCAA Advisory Council applications are open year round. Terms are for three years and begin July 1st of each year. For more information, please email the Office of Alumni Relations at ccalum@ccis.edu.
