The San Diego Community College District (SDCCD) is a public community college district in the city of San Diego, California. The district is one of the five community college districts in San Diego County; part of the greater California Community College system. Under the California Master Plan for Higher Education, the California Community College system is a part of the state's three-tier public higher education system, which also includes the University of California system and California State University system.
The San Diego Community College District consists of three two-year, associate degree-awarding campuses: San Diego City College, San Diego Mesa College, and San Diego Miramar College; and six San Diego Continuing Education campuses: César Chávez, CE at Mesa College, Educational Cultural Complex (ECC), Mid-City, North City, and West City. SDCCD is one of the 72 districts containing the 112 public community colleges in the state of California.
The three two-year, associate degree-awarding campuses community colleges are fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC). In late 2010, the colleges were visited by the accrediting commission team in preparation to the renewal of the colleges' credentials. In January 2011, the accrediting commission will act on the team’s recommendation regarding the reaffirmation of the colleges’ accreditation status for the next six years.
