About ACCA
Message from ACCA President
With many things still unsettled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including travel restrictions in place for most institutions during Fall semester, the Alabama Community College Association’s executive committee has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 ACCA Conference scheduled for November 22-24, 2020. The health and safety of our attendees, presenters, and conference partners was our largest concern.
Though disappointed to cancel this year’s event, we are moving forward with planning the 2021 conference. The Birmingham Sheraton and BJCC have transferred our existing contract without penalty to November 21-23, 2021. We know this is a challenging time for all educators and we hope that you have a productive Fall semester and stay safe.
I hope that everyone stays safe and healthy throughout the summer and that we can look forward to a return to a more normal life in 2021.
Ben Jordan, ACCA President
