Advisory Council

The NC Department of Public Instruction has reinstated its AP Advisory Council. The advisory council consists of educators from K-12 through collegiate arenas who provide recommendations on the implementation on AP programs throughout the state in order to move North Carolina and AP towards more equitable and successful opportunities.

Advisory council members will hold a three year term and will meet twice annually. Meeting dates and times will be outlined under upcoming events.
