Rappahannock Community College (RCC), founded in 1970, provides high-quality educational and training opportunities throughout a 12‑county service region an hour east of Richmond on the beautiful western shore of the Chesapeake Bay. RCC delivers accessible and affordable educational opportunities, including for‑credit transfer and career technical programs, robust distance education coursework, quality dual enrollment courses, and award‑winning workforce training and credentialing programs.
RCC’s annualized enrollment of 3,700 credit students in 2024‑2025 and almost 800 workforce and community development students is supported by almost 140 full‑time employees and over 200 part‑time/adjunct employees across two main campuses and five satellite sites.

The College desires candidates with a commitment to the community college mission and experience working in a diverse student population, including adult learners and at‑risk students.
