A brief summary of additional ways the institution collaborates with other campuses to advance sustainability :
CCCC is a member of the North Carolina Community College System Code Green Initiatve. Initial efforts have started with the naming of a President-level committee that is laying out the framework for how we train for green economy jobs, how we foster sustainability on our campuses and how we might use our campuses as learning labs for our students and our communities.
CCCC actively collaborates with other community colleges as they are in the beginning phases of integrating sustainability into the curriculum by sharing course resources and teaching strategies.
Additionally CCCC partners with North Carolina State University in hosting training events and public education events to promote sustainability in agriculture, design, waste water management and renewable energy.
Our faculty has worked closely with the National Renewable Energy Lab in summer training opportunities and recenlty completed a four week trip to Denmark with representatives from four other community colleges to learn about the extensive sustainability programs in Denmark and Germany.
