WICHE Academic Partnerships

Bringing together the Western Academic Leadership Forum (Forum) and the Western Alliance of Community College Academic Leaders (Alliance)

The  Forum is a membership organization that serves as a collaborative network to exchange ideas and information, share resources and expertise among provosts, academic vice presidents, chief executives, and chief academic officers at WICHE-region public and private doctoral, master’s, and bachelor’s level institutions and related systems offices and state agencies. The Alliance is a membership organization that serves as an incubator for collaborating and problem-solving among chief academic officers (or equivalent) at WICHE-region community colleges and technical schools, related systems, and state coordinating and governing boards. In 2025 we bring together these two affinity groups to learn from one another. 

Please save the date for April 23-25, 2025 to join us in Reno, NV.
