We have completed a performance audit of the North Carolina Department of Community Colleges, System Office. The objectives of the audit were to evaluate the current organizational structure and operational procedures of the System Office and offer recommendations for refinement and improvement. Based on our review, we believe the current organizational structure of the System Office is effective and offers the services needed by the individual community colleges. We have, however, identified some organizational refinements and operational issues which the President and the State Board need to address to assure efficient and effective System operations.
