Executive Council

The Executive Council serves as Jackson College’s central leadership body, responsible for reviewing and maintaining administrative policies that guide college operations. It promotes transparency, continuity, and strategic alignment across departments. In coordination with the Academic Council, the Executive Council ensures policies are regularly reviewed, updated, and clearly communicated. This unified approach supports operational excellence and reflects the College’s commitment to thoughtful, collaborative leadership.
