Career Launch at LLCC

This summer's Career Launch participants
LLCC has enjoyed hosting teens from the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Illinois’ Career Launch program this summer! They learned about such careers as computer science, aviation, health care, criminal justice, welding, HVAC and culinary. The group had a celebration on campus last week and reflected on their time learning about different careers through hands-on activities.

LLCC to welcome new VP Aug. 1

I am pleased to announce the appointment of Kelli Sinclair as the vice president of student services. Sinclair has an extensive background working in all areas of student services at Aurora University, Elgin Community College, and most recently as executive dean for student success at Waubonsee Community College. She co-created a student success coaching program which increased retention for high-need students by 12-15% per year for five years. Her past work reflects a collaborative approach in working with faculty and staff to build relationships and to ultimately improve student success. We look forward to her joining our staff on Aug. 1.
