Partnership Development

Join Us in a Mutually Beneficial Partnership!

The McKimmon Center for Extension and Continuing Education is about partnerships. Linking University resources with adult learners, business, industry, government, and professional associations provide unique benefits to all partners. From our partners come increased opportunities for assessments and contractual education. Vice Chancellor for Extension, Engagement & Economic Development, Dr. James Zuiches says "University engagement and economic development mean partnerships-intense relationships with others. We are not simply from the government and here to help; we are a partner in the process. That means we must be creative, collaborative and the activities must be mutually beneficial."

We are uniquely positioned to provide access to the vast intellectual and technical resources of this university, as well as those of other educational institutions, professional groups, and partners. For our clients, access to smart people, cutting edge research, state-of-the-art conference facilities and equipment equals career growth and competitive advantage in the market place. Our partners find convenient access to continuing education and professional development expertise existing in NC State University faculty, other partners, specialized facilities and equipment, and a capable staff who are eager to apply their knowledge to real-world problems. Such access leads to positive economic benefit for the partners and the people of North Carolina.

For NC State, the cross-fertilization of adult learners, business, industry, government, and professional association partnerships pays dividends not only in economic development for our region and state, but also in providing opportunities for employees and employers to become more productive, efficient, and cost-effective.
