State policymakers increasingly rely on community colleges to provide accessible pathways to postsecondary education, as well as to fill workforce and economic development roles. Despite this focus by policymakers on the sector, there has been little systematic investigation into how policy, regarding the two-year sector, is created. Community colleges serve nearly half of postsecondary students, many of whom are from minoritized and underserved backgrounds. Understanding better the ways in which state governments structure economic opportunity through workforce development policy targeted at community colleges is critical to ensuring policy contributes to equitable outcomes.To fill this notable gap in the literature, this study examines the workforce development policy process as it relates to two-year institutions in the state of Georgia through the conceptual perspectives of the Advocacy Coalition Framework and academic capitalism. The state of Georgia is exceptionally active in terms of workforce development policy, and examining the state's approach to workforce development policy, as I have done in this dissertation, contributes to both theories as they relate to community colleges.I find that the factors identified by the Advocacy Coalition Framework as influencing the subsystem, coupled with the hierarchy of beliefs of subsystem actors, serve to explain the why of the policy process. Academic capitalism's mechanisms help to explain the what and how of workforce development policy in the state. The orientation of the two primary coalitions of actors involved in workforce development policy strongly influences both the intent and content of workforce policy, particularly as it relates to equity. The workforce development policy subsystem is complex with a wide variety of actors, interconnected with many other policy issues.
