Hello. I'm Joanne Truesdell, the president of Clackamas Community College and a 1982 graduate of the college.

We live in transformative times. Around the globe, we are transforming business, education, health care, government and more. In a changing world, it's important to acquire the education and skills needed to remain competitive. Clackamas Community College can help.

Clackamas offers more than 80 career and technical programs from accounting to nursing to welding. Our new Renewable Energy Systems Technology program will prepare you for work in the growing field of green energy. We also provide a great start toward your bachelor's degree by completing your transfer degree at CCC. We now have three degree partnership/dual enrollment programs with Oregon universities: Oregon State, OIT and Portland State. These partnerships provide a seamless path toward completion of a four-year degree, saving time and money in the process.

As you look through the catalog at the programs and classes we offer, I hope you feel a sense of possibility and excitement. I know from personal experience that you will find a commitment to your success in the staff and instructors at Clackamas. I wish you the very best as you begin your education journey.
