Summer 2021 Community 全球十大博彩公司letter: Message from Our Leadership Team

亲爱的Anoka技术社区:

Having just moved through a difficult pandemic year, we turn our attention with great excitement to the next academic year at Anoka Tech! 
 
We know that education changes lives for the better. 大流行的, 虽然具有挑战性, has taught us new ways of learning, 新的工作方式, new ways of connecting with partners and new ways to support students in meeting their educational goals.

As a member of our alumni and partner communities, you know getting an education from Anoka Tech is an excellent way to advance a career or choose a new one. As we strive to support the workforce needs right here in Minnesota, the college is here to help students create better lives to care for their families into the future. This work could not be done without our industry partners that help ensure a quality education that prepares students to enter the workforce in high-demand careers. 

In Issue 3 of our Summer Community 全球十大博彩公司letter, we shared stories of our ongoing partnerships across multiple sectors and the impact of those partnerships from an alumni perspective. These relationships are essential to what we do for our students. We aim to meet the needs of our community by providing graduates who are ready to embrace the challenges of the workforce today.

This year has also given us renewed momentum to further goal three of our 战略计划—to foster an environment that practices equity and inclusion. Work on this goal has been ongoing, through our Strategic Diversity and 包容 Plan and in service of 明尼苏达州’s Equity 2030 plan to eliminate educational equity gaps and eliminate disparities in success for students of color within our programs. The work is ongoing and essential. 本期, we are thrilled to introduce the college’s new Vice President of Equity and 包容, 高管Brandyn Woodard.
