Common Course Numbering | CCN

https://smccd.edu/general-education/common-course-numbering.php

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.  We support students interested in working with children and families in their communities.  Whether exploring careers in education, social work, and/or community organizations, EHD can help you achieve your goals.

Students may choose from the following programs:
