CCBA also supports closer collaboration between community colleges and baccalaureate- granting institutions in conferring degrees through brick-and-mortar partnerships in university centers, jointly administered distance education programs, as well as the creation of centers of higher learning in which community colleges offer the first two years and the partner institutions offer the required junior and senior courses. Beyond sharing physical resources, CCBA also supports joint appointment of faculty, counselors and other staff to provide greater access for all students.

 — Roy Flores is chancellor of Pima Community College, and Beth Hagan is executive director of the Community College Baccalaureate Association.

The forum is sponsored in partnership with the National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development (NISOD) at The University of Texas at Austin.
