About Us

CLPCCD serves 29,000 students annually, in the San Francisco East Bay Area, particularly southern Alameda County, through its two colleges: Chabot College in Hayward and Las Positas College in Livermore. CLPCCD is governed by a seven member board of trustees which is responsible for all policy decisions. Board members are elected from trustee areas by the registered voters of nine communities: Castro Valley, Dublin, Hayward, Livermore, Pleasanton, San Leandro, San Lorenzo, Sunol, and Union City.

The Economic Development and Contract Education department has built a reputation for high-quality services that are innovative, results-oriented and tailored to the specific needs and goals of our clients and students. Though we work with a variety of people and organizations, everything we do supports our mission: “We empower individuals and communities to thrive by creating career, education and economic opportunities.”
