Dear CCC Students,
We have been monitoring the COVID-19 situation and wanted to provide you with an update after today’s news conference from Governor Newsom. It remains the same as the original written Order from the Health Officer “Educational institutions (including public and private k-12 schools, colleges and universities) for the purposes of facilitating distance learning or performing essential functions (limited lab), provided that social distancing is maintained to the greatest extent as possible.”
All students attending limited lab classes, VN Clinicals and Externships unless notified from the site, “they are ordered to close” we are to continue business as usual. We can still meet with individuals on a one-on- one basis for new student enrollment or any other essential duties that assist in any new students in getting them prepared for online learning. At this point, our staff positions remain essential and you should continue to report to work. We are committed to your health and safety and are monitoring and following the directives coming from local, state, and federal officials. It is IMPERATIVE you WEAR YOUR MASK when you are around others. It is for the safety of others and yourself.
Students, thank you for your commitment and dedication to reach and achieve the Education Goals you have set for yourself. I sincerely thank you staff, faculty and the community for serving our students.
Sincerely,

Dear CCC Students,
During the weekend our Online Learning Management System, Moodle went down. Classes will continue tomorrow as scheduled through Ring Central Meetings. Your instructor will be in contact with you via email or CourseKey chat to provide you with the link or meeting ID for Ring Central to get into class online. Your instructor has a plan and will provide you with instructions regarding your weekly objectives, assignments, homework and testing. We sincerely apologize for this set back, we are moving quickly to restore the online instructional delivery and are confident we will maintain a quality delivery of education until we have Moodle restored. Please follow your instructors directions and thank you for your patience.

Dear Central Coast Students, Faculty and Staff,
We have been monitoring the COVID-19 situation overnight and are aware that Monterey County has ordered a “Shelter in Place” order throughout the entire county effective at midnight, tonight.
Central Coast College Students we have a plan. We have faculty that have prepared course resources and materials to be distributed this evening or emailed to each student. It will be a manual process for a few days. Central Coast Program Directors, Sharon Willis and Maria Ortega, are in Lancaster getting trained to move all of our Central Coast Programs online.
We have taken the data you have provided, related to your online readiness, and we will start scheduling training. We are working to get our programs online and train students on how to shift to an online learning environment by next Monday, March 23. Your instructors will be contacting you to organize training to shift to online. It will begin this Thursday and Friday – March 19 – March 20. As I have previously shared with you, the new learning environment will be “Live Online” where the faculty and students attend the classes in an online environment together at regularly scheduled times. Rather than the faculty being in front of the class, they will be in an online environment with the students.
Comcast is offering free internet access for 60 days to low income students. Click here for information: https://www.internetessentials.com/covid19
Central Coast College will be prepared for classes to be conducted in an online environment beginning the week of March 23.
For labs, we will move to online simulation. We are still working through those details.
Clinicals for all programs will not be disrupted unless the site instructs the students not to attend. The student should contact the campus if they receive this notice and we will plan accordingly for their next steps.
All staff we are assessing their online capabilities to have them work from home and will be in contact this week.
We remain confident that we can maintain our institution through this COVID-19 crisis. Thank you for your passion, dedication and commitment. We will be in touch as changes continue to occur.
We will continue to monitor and evaluate the status of the situation rigorously and communicate any changes via email and text. Please refer to this website for the most recent updates:
