CPCC is led by Dr. Tony Zeiss, who became the institution’s third president in 1992. Guided by seven institutional values (learning, inclusiveness, responsiveness, excellence, integrity, accessibility and innovation), Zeiss leads 375 full-time and 1,200 part-time faculty members and 747 staff members in the creation of positive, nurturing and learning-focused experiences for CPCC’s 52,000 students.

CPCC seeks to be innovative. To this end, it became a member of the League for Innovation in Community Colleges in
1969 and has been identified as one of the top five of the nation’s two-year colleges in teaching excellence. The college is the county’s premier workforce development resource, offering its educational services throughout the area.
