During the American Association of Community Colleges' (AACC) Annual Business Meeting held in conjunction with the association's convention, the President and CEO presents a report on chief executive officer (CEO) leadership transitions. CEO leadership transitions, as defined by AACC, include retirements, CEO movement from one college to another, and the appointment of first-time CEOs. The association collects new appointments and departures (retirements or transitions to another position) from college submissions to the CC Daily, review of employment announcements from other trade publications, self-notification, and through word-of-mouth. All identified transitions are entered into the association's member database for analysis. Community colleges are frequently led by interim CEOs following the departure of one CEO and the announcement of the new CEO. This analysis does not include interim CEOs. The institutions included in this transitions report represent all colleges identified by AACC as member eligible (regionally accredited, predominantly associate degree granting) or the district offices that oversee these colleges.
