Ozarka College

This Advisory Council has been eliminated or re-aligned for efficient and effective operation of the College.

Purpose:

An educational advisory is a group of persons selected from the community who advise the college concerning specific occupational education programs and courses of study. Advisory committees include practitioners, employers, and supervisors within their occupation. Students, graduates, and consumers may also be represented on the committee. Members of the college administration, faculty, or staff serve as liaisons to the committee. Education programs are unique because they recognize the need for input from business, industry, health, and public services communities to assure programs meet the needs of community. Advisory committees are indispensable in identifying current and future occupational skills, knowledge, and goals. Such input ensures that graduate have the necessary skills that the labor market demands for success.
