California Community Colleges have made it easier for students to transfer credits between schools with the new Common Course Numbering (CCN) system.
- Equivalent courses at California Community Colleges will be renamed with the same course number and name.
- Courses you have already completed will not change on your transcript. Don't worry about losing any progress!
Welcome to the Education & Human Development (EHD) Department at Cañada College.
