As
a member of the Arkansas Delta Training and Education Consortium and the
Mississippi River Transportation, Distribution and Logistics Consortium,
Mid-South Community College grasps the value and efficacy of regional
partnerships. We understand that strategic collaborations to pool and maximize
the resources of multiple stakeholders are not only logical but are crucial to
the future of this part of country.
So
when the Memphis Chamber of Commerce approached us about a partnership with
Southwest Tennessee Community College, an institution some might consider as a
competitor of MSCC, but a fellow member of the Mississippi River consortium,
our Board of Trustees recognized the value. Trustees recently approved a fairly
straightforward, cooperative agreement that teems with tremendous potential for
positive change. In a short period of time, we have been able to create a very
strong relationship with Southwest Tennessee, primarily driven by the Memphis
Chamber of Commerce’s desire to better integrate Mid-South Community College
into the Memphis business and industry world.
