The American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) is the primary advocacy organization for the nation's community colleges representing more than 1,100 associate degree-granting institutions and over

AACC strives to maintain a comfortable human relations atmosphere so that distractions or conflicts do not interfere with overall performance. Conveniently located at Dupont Circle, NW, AACC offers a 35-hour work week, exceptional benefits, and a congenial work environment. The responsibilities of AACC's 55 employees are divided into the following nine departments:
- Executive Office
