What is a Learning Community?
Success ~ Support ~ Friends!
Learning Communities are a great way to connect with a supportive network of classmates, teachers, and academic advisers with common interests or backgrounds.
You can take classes with a small group of students who share your background or interests, enjoy related activities outside the classroom, and, as a learning community member, access added support and resources, including counseling, peer and faculty mentoring, and more.
Cabrillo College has a wide variety of Learning Communities, including one that's right for you!
