Maricopa Governance

MCCCD Board Policies and Administrative Regulations

These are the policies and administrative regulations of Maricopa Governance, a leadership model adopted by the Governing Board of the Maricopa County Community College District in 1996 that establishes a framework for accountability to our constituents. One of the most important roles of the Governing Board is to identify goals for the purpose of better serving the people of Maricopa County, students, private and public sector employers, universities, and primary and secondary schools.

Policies that determine benefits that will occur for the Board's constituents. These are prioritized and reflected in the budget.

Metrics
The metrics serve as a foundation for future monitoring of the Governing Board Outcomes (intended organizational results). It is a key component for MCCCD to conduct institutional monitoring of stakeholder deliverables.

2 -Chancellor Responsibilities

Policies that provide the prudent, ethical, and acceptable Chancellor acts, practices, and circumstances.

Chancellor Interpretations
