About TCCTA
Comprised of educators from every teaching discipline, as well as counselors, librarians, and administrators, the Texas Community College Teachers Association's members come from all public and independent two-year colleges in Texas. TCCTA is -- by far --the largest organization of postsecondary educators in Texas.
The Association receives wide acclaim for its fairness, integrity, and professionalism in representing the interests of its members and their colleges. TCCTA regularly is called upon to provide information and testimony to committees of the Texas Legislature and to agencies of state government, including the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, the Texas Workforce Commission, and the Teacher Retirement System of Texas.
