National Association For Community College Entrepreneurship - Partnerships

Partnerships

In January 2011, NACCE announced its participation in the Startup America Partnership, a White House-led public/private alliance designed to dramatically increase the prevalence and success of American Entrepreneurs.

NACCE has partnered with the Direct Selling Education Foundation to develop a Direct Selling Entrepreneur Certificate Program, that will be launched in the fall of 2011. This non-credit, direct selling curriculum and certificate program will be offered through community colleges.

The Council for Resource Development (CRD) is an organization made up of foundation and development officers and grant writers only at community colleges. The individuals serve at the college to identify revenue streams (private and public) to advance the programs of the college. NACCE plans on bringing the fundraising expertise and the entrepreneurship faculty together so that they may more effectively collaborate on ways to increase sustainability of their entrepreneurship program.

In addition, NACCE works internationally to advance entrepreneurship education through partnerships with the Belfast Institute for Further and Higher Education|Belfast Institute, Northern Ireland and the Niels Brock's Business College, Denmark as well as the International Denmark Entrepreneurship Alliance in Denmark.
