Advisory Committee

Advisory Committee

Augusta Technical College requires all programs to obtain input on curriculum to meet industry needs. This is done via advisory committees. For Cyber and Related programs, the committed membership is a broad spectrum of industry and government Cyber experts and managers.

The purpose of an Advisory Committee is to provide expert support for each degree, diploma, and selected certificate programs. An Advisory Committee is established to promote interaction between the program and stakeholders in the community served by the program. Interaction includes using expertise of Advisory Committee members to improve curriculum content and program operation.
