Common Course Numbering (CCN)
As a result of AB 1111, California Community Colleges are adopting a common course numbering system for all general education and transfer pathway courses. The purpose of the CCN system is to ensure that comparable courses across all community colleges have the same course number. The goal is to streamline the transfer process from California Community Colleges to four-year postsecondary educational institutions and reduce excess credit accumulation.
The chart below provides a list of courses offered throughout Cerro Coso Community College with a comparison of the current course prefix and number and the new course prefix and number based on the CCN system beginning fall 2025.
You may call Cerro Coso Counseling at (760) 384-6219 or your local campus counseling office and talk to a member of our advising staff regarding your needs.
