Delta College has been designated a Leader College by Achieving the Dream (ATD), a national nonprofit dedicated to advancing community colleges as hubs of equity and economic mobility in their communities.

“Delta College is committed to increasing completion rates for all students,” said Michael Gavin, president of Delta College. “Recertifying our Leader College designation provides us with the opportunity to continue improving student success and equity, not just at Delta, but on college campuses across the nation.”

Leader Colleges play an important role in accelerating the adoption of effective practices across higher education. Leader Colleges develop innovative ways to work with other colleges to share knowledge and facilitate an exchange of ideas about evidence-based reform strategies.

Delta College has been part of the ATD Network since 2010.
