Computer Studies Advisory Board

The Las Positas College Computer Science, Computer Information Systems, and Computer Networking Technology programs have an industry advisory board that meets once or twice a year to gather information from industry partners related to our Career & Technical Education (CTE) program. Our advisory board member’s knowledge and expertise in their field qualify them as highly valuable members of the advisory board and their participation is greatly appreciated.

If you are interested in joining the advisory board please contact the Program Coordinator, Jeff Weichert, at jweichert@laspositascollege.edu and/or the Program Outreach Specialist, Jean O’Neil-Opipari, at joneilopipari@laspositascollege.edu
