Themes of Focus: Missing and serving needs of unique populations, Admission, Retention, and Completion, Finance, Governance, Curricula, Student services, Internationalization (including student mobility and sustained partnerships), Leadership strategies resulting in successful student outcomes. . 330 $aThis book explores the complexities of community colleges and global counterparts by focusing on critical analysis of governance, leadership, and mission. These complexities represent emerging and evolving phenomena that impact the institutions? ability to a) serve students; b) offer sound curricula; c) admit and retain students; d) increase completion rates; e) create viable and sustained partnerships locally and internationally; f) address the needs of unique populations; g) funding and sustainability, and h) support staff development to enhance faculty and staff excellence. This work will introduce and elaborate upon these topics to highlight not only the challenges of the field in a variety of countries worldwide, but to also begin to build comparative understanding of the field at large. In that these institutions are now identified, it is time to academically address their role in higher education. 410 0$aSpringer International Handbooks of Education,$x2197-1951 606 $aInternational education  606 $aComparative education 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aSchool administration 606 $aHigher education 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O13000 606 $aAdministration, Organization and Leadership$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O17000 606 $aHigher Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O36000 615 0$aInternational education . 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aSchool administration. 615 0$aHigher education. 615 14$aInternational and Comparative Education. 615 24$aAdministration, Organization and Leadership. 615 24$aHigher Education. 676 $a370.116 676 $a370.9 702 $aLatiner Raby$b Rosalind$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aValeau$b Edward J$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349344803321 996 $aHandbook of Comparative Studies on Community Colleges and Global Counterparts$92186345 997 $aUNINA
