Meet Our Team
The Effingham Regional Career Foundation Board of Directors is comprised of 11 business representatives and 10 education representatives. Committees are led by business and education co-chairs and utilize business focus groups along with labor statistics and projections to determine curriculum needs. Our Director and Course Facilitators are well-versed in the mission of ERCA and work to provide materials that help students meet their goals. We strive to provide the best value to our students that we can. That is why we focus on operating this Academy with highly competent individuals at the helm.
