Dr. Phyllis Cummins, Senior Research Scholar at Scripps Gerontology Center, has been elected to serve on the National Council for Workforce Education's Board of Directors. Cummins joins three other new members elected to the board and will serve a one-year term. In 2012, Dr. Cummins was awarded the James Jacobs Scholarship Award from NCWE for her dissertation research on older workers attaining credentials and degrees at community colleges.

"I have been an active NCWE member for several years, having presented at multiple NCWE conferences. As per NCWE’s mission, and as a researcher dedicated to the dissemination of findings to practitioners and policymakers, my role as a board member will be to provide the important link between research and practice. Serving on the NCWE board is an honor and will provide me with the opportunity to give back to an organization that has given me so much."
