The purpose of the institute, to be held in Tempe, Ariz., Dec. 4-9, is to provide an opportunity for potential community college presidents or those in transition to review their abilities and interests, refine their skills and participate in discussions on leadership with outstanding community college leaders in North America.

The faculty of the institute are drawn from among outstanding community college leaders across North America.
