The Wake Tech Board of Trustees has approved a plan to ensure a smooth and cohesive transition to the presidency of Dr. Scott Ralls. Dr. Ralls will become the fourth president of Wake Tech on April 12, sooner than originally planned. The plan includes the establishment of a transition team, made up of faculty, staff, administrators, trustees, and student representatives. The team’s main focus will be maintaining momentum in college operations and on key initiatives like capital improvement projects and strategic planning. The team will launch a comprehensive communications plan, obtain guidance on pending decisions, and develop a schedule for introducing Dr. Ralls to the college community and external stakeholders.
On February 1, Dr. Gayle Greene, Wake Tech’s Executive Vice President, will become Acting President until Dr. Ralls officially joins the college. Dr. Greene currently oversees day-to-day operations, supervises senior administrative staff, and ensures that institutional goals are met. Interim President William Aiken’s last day at Wake Tech will be January 31. The transition leadership structure was approved pending review by the State Board of Community Colleges on January 17.
