About
According to the CCCCO, “Assembly Bill No. 1111 (Berman) requires implementation of a student-facing common course numbering (CCN) system across the California Community Colleges on or before July 1, 2024.”
“The CCN system will assign the same course number to comparable courses across all California community colleges in order to “streamline transfer from two- to four-year postsecondary educational institutions and reduce excess credit accumulation.””
“The CCN system will establish a structure that maximizes credit mobility for all students, strengthening equitable transfer and student success. More specifically, it will support students in areas such as building cohesive academic plans, understanding how required courses transfer and apply to completion, and making informed course selections that support degree completion. This effort will require the coordinated engagement of many stakeholders, including faculty, administrators, staff and system officials.”
In late spring 2024, the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges (ASCCC) has released a survey related to the Common Course Numbering (CCN) Implementation.
Political Science faculty were encouraged to participate in this opportunity to provide feedback and input into the development of CCN Course Template for POLS 110 Introduction to US Government and Politics.
ASCCC will send out additional information in summer 2024.
