Abstract
The chief academic officer (CAO) position is largely neglected in higher education
literature. In particular, there is a dearth of information reporting the knowledge and
skills specific to a chief academic officer serving a two-year college. Through a Delphi
process, a panel of two-year college CAOs qualified and prioritized a list of knowledge
and skill items deemed essential to successfully perform the duties of a two-year college chief academic officer. As a result of the study, a contemporary model of prioritized knowledge and skill-sets for a chief academic officer of a two-year college was created. The value of this model is that it provides greater insight into the knowledge and skill sets needed for the position of two-year college chief academic officer.
