General Membership Meeting - Guest Speaker Jeff L. Pittman

General Membership Meeting - Guest Speaker Jeff L. Pittman
Guest Speaker - Chancellor of St. Louis Community College, Jeff L. Pittman, Ph.D.


About Chancellor Jeff L. Pittman, Ph.D.

Jeff Pittman, Ph.D., began his role as chancellor of St. Louis Community College in July 2015. He is responsible for guiding a multi-campus college system with four locations that offer college transfer options and more than 80 career-focused programs. STLCC is the largest higher educational institution in the region, serving more than 50,000 students annually.

Under his leadership, the college has developed a comprehensive strategic plan, increased employee participation in the budgeting process with new emphasis on fiscal responsibility, increased opportunities for workforce development initiatives and programming, developed dual enrollment and dual credit programs for high school students, and has focused on maintaining affordable, accessible, quality educational opportunities. In 2018, STLCC earned reaffirmation of accreditation with the Higher Learning Commission. Next fall, the college will open the Center for Nursing and Health Sciences building at the Forest Park campus to help train students for careers in health care.

Pittman has 30 years of experience in higher education. In addition to his role as chancellor, Pittman serves as a board member for Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis, Missouri Botanical Garden, St. Louis Regional Chamber of Commerce, United Way of Greater St. Louis, Higher Education Consortium of Metropolitan St. Louis, Missouri Community College Association and RC-2020.


Topic: State of the Workforce Presented by St. Louis Community College

Ten years ago, our economy faced 6.6 unemployed workers for every job opening. Today, the economic outlook is much different as there are now more job openings than unemployed persons.

During this presentation, Chancellor Jeff L. Pittman, Ph.D., will discuss key findings from St. Louis Community College's 10th annual State of the St. Louis Workforce Report. Special emphasis will be placed on the sectors critical to the region's past and future economic resurgence, including healthcare, information technology and financial services.
