Fayetteville Technical Community College is pleased to announce Richard Barnes as the Associate Vice President for Human Resources & Talent Development.
Barnes joins FTCC following the retirement of Carl Mitchell, who served as the head of the college’s Human Resources department until his departure in July.
“I am thrilled to be here, and the thing that excites me is that FTCC is growing,” Barnes said in a press release. “The best part of HR is bringing people into new experiences.”
Barnes has since spent his life in North Carolina, earning his undergraduate degree in psychology and his juris doctor degree from NC Central University.
He most recently worked at Shaw University as the college’s AVP for human resources and Title IX coordinator. Prior to his work in higher education, Barnes gained experience in human resources in the private sector, working at Nortel, North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company and as a contractor at Red Hat.
“We are excited for Mr. Barnes to join us and leverage his skills and experience to keep us moving forward to meet our institutional goals and create a pathway for talent development,” FTCC Vice President for Business, Finance & HR Debbie Todd said in a press release.
