We prepare some of the 8 million Californians who feel stuck in “go-nowhere” jobs for careers with a future, and we do it through online training.
We support and promote our adult learners. From pre-registration and classes, through career preparation, we are here.
Calbright positions students who have demonstrated job competency and readiness for successful careers. We work to connect students with resources and organizations who can help advance their professional goals.
Calbright College is designed to focus on careers, not college credentials. Unlike other community colleges, rather than working toward an associate’s degree, our adult learners work toward career readiness. While many community colleges offer online classes, they are structured like a traditional college, that is: term-based and with fixed milestones. Calbright is different.
Calbright College, the state’s only exclusively online community college, is one of nine institutions in the country selected to participate in a national research program to examine how technology can improve students’ skills for managing learning on their own.
An interview with Calbright’s Vice-President for Learning and Instruction, Pamela Sanborn.
I’ve been a community college trustee for more than 20 years because economic justice starts with educational justice, and I know that Calbright has an important role to play in building that new, more equitable normal.
