What is Progressive Adult College Education (PACE)?

A unique approach to college education for busy adults

How does it work?

• Classes are accelerated. Rather than the marathon of a standard sixteen-week semester, you run hard and fast through seven- and eight-week sessions. During each session, you can complete two classes at the same time, so over a sixteen-week semester, you can complete four classes—just like a traditional-age, full-time student.

• Class schedules fit your schedule. You will meet at the Canyon Country Campus five Saturdays per session and complete the remaining work via the Internet. This maximizes your flexibility while still allowing personal contact with classmates and instructors. We call this combination of on-campus and online work a hybrid format.

• Classes lead to degrees you need. We offer three tracks of classes in PACE: Business Accounting, Liberal Studies, Social Science.

• Classes are planned to help you achieve your goals. By taking all the classes in the PACE format, you could complete the courses you need in order to earn your Associate degree and qualify to transfer to a university. Our planned curriculum runs in a five-semester cycle, so you can start at nearly any point.

• Classmates are busy adults like you. You know what you’re doing, where you’re going, and how to get there. Your classmates do, too.

     In only five semesters, taking 2 courses each session (4 courses in 1 semester) you can fulfill most requirements for your associate degree and prepare to transfer to a university!
