The Copper Mountain Community College Board of Trustees heard from Chief Business Officer Meredith Plummer as she presented the details of the 2019- 2020 proposed adopted budget. With the projected total fund expenditures at $22 million, it is $500,000 over budget. The board was informed that the reserves will fill in the shortage and the budget was approved.
The board then learned more about CTE, or Career Technical Education at CMC, from the highly successful Nursing Program to the new course in Culinary Arts and the upcoming CADD, or Computer Aided Design certificate program. CTE programs represent almost 40 percent of all degrees and certificates awarded at CMC over the last six years.
