About ACC

About the Alaska Comprehensive Center
The Alaska Comprehensive Center (ACC) at SERRC - Alaska's Educational Resource Center serves the State of Alaska, in partnership with the Northwest Regional Educational Laboratory, 16 Regional Comprehensive Centers and 5 Content Centers. The ACC provides assistance to the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development (EED) to help implement the provisions of the federal No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act and improve student achievement statewide.

Mission
Our mission is to support the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development with their technical assistance needs through research-based strategies, professional development, and resources to enable students to meet both Alaska's high standards, and those of NCLB. By linking with the Content Centers and collaborative partners within Alaska, the state will have access not only to expertise in topics critical to high quality research-based, reading, writing, math and science instruction, but also to a deep knowledge of materials and teaching strategies that are appropriate for the unique cultural contexts of Alaska schools and communities.
