A public forum and interview for the finalist for the next president of the Tennessee College of Applied Technology Jackson, Heath R. McMillian, is scheduled for May 22.
McMillian, TCAT Jackson’s current executive vice president and interim president, was named finalist for the TCAT Jackson presidency by the Tennessee Board of Regents (TBR) April 27.
The public forum and interview, the next step in the search process, will be held virtually on Microsoft Teams at 9 a.m. CT, May 22, 2023. The Teams link and instructions to participate are below and are also posted on the TBR website at https://www.tbr.edu/hr/executivesearches/president-tcat-jackson, along with McMillian’s resumé and information about the presidential search.
After the forum, TBR Chancellor Flora W. Tydings will gather input from the public and campus community, conduct final interviews and make a recommendation on the appointment to the board, which is scheduled to consider the presidential appointment at its next quarterly meeting June 15-16 at Chattanooga State Community College.
McMillian came to TCAT Jackson in May 2022 as executive vice president to lead development of the Blue Oval City Campus and its programs and curriculum. He has been serving as interim president since October 2022 when former president Jeff Sisk was appointed executive director of the systemwide TBR Center for Workforce Development.
