PROPOSED MODEL: \; The proposed model consists of two distinctive\, complementary institutions: CCV with an expanded mission focused on entry-level postsecondary certificates\, associate&rsquo\;s degrees and workforce education\, and a combined entity incorporating the distinct attributes and strengths of CU\, NVU\, and VTC. \; The transformed system will have an expanded core of system-wide approaches to administrative functions\, system leadership through the Chancellor&rsquo\;s Office focused on external and inter-institutional functions\, and a single governing board with strengthened oversight policies and culture. It will provide greater access to an affordable post-secondary education for Vermonters\, including adult learners\, through innovative and flexible delivery of programs and courses across the state.
