MADISON, FL – North Florida Community College (NFCC) has been named one of the best colleges in the nation to work for by The Chronicle of Higher Education.
The Chronicle of Higher Education, a top trade publication for colleges and universities, released the result of their new survey this week in The Chronicle's ninth annual report on The Academic Workplace.
The Chronicle says results were based on a survey of 281 colleges and Universities and direct employee feedback from those institutions.
Only 93 of the surveyed institutions achieved "Great College to Work For" recognition. This is the first year NFCC participated in the survey.
NFCC landed a spot on the Honor Roll for achieving high marks in nine categories that reflect best practices and policies of great colleges. The College was specifically recognized for achievement in the following categories:
· Collaborative Governance · Confidence in Senior Leadership · Facilities, Workspace & Security · Job Satisfaction · Professional/Career Development Programs · Respect and Appreciation · Supervisor/Department Chair Relationship · Teaching Environment (Faculty Only) · Work/Life Balance

"North Florida Community College employees care about the work they do, the people they work with and the integrity of the institution as a whole," said NFCC President John Grosskopf. "This recognition speaks volumes about our campus, employees and the extraordinary work environment that we enjoy here at NFCC. Visitors regularly comment on our welcoming environment and our friendly, helpful faculty and staff. We are proud to offer NFCC employees a variety of avenues to enrich their lives personally and professionally through access to the arts, health and wellness programs, an outstanding benefits package, and professional collaboration within the Florida College System and beyond."
