San Diego Community College District

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I am pleased to provide an update on the progress to identify the next Chancellor of the San Diego Community College District (SDCCD). We remain committed to conducting an equitable, fair, inclusive, and transparent national search.

Chancellor Profile: in late-July a survey was distributed to solicit input on the challenges and opportunities facing the SDCCD and the desired experiences and skills of our new chancellor. I would like to thank everyone who completed the survey. Your input was valuable and helped inform the Chancellor Profile.

On August 11, the Chancellor Search Committee reviewed and revised the Chancellor Profile and it was accepted by the Board of Trustees at our August Board meeting. 

More information on
the Chancellor Search

The target date for applications is: November 17, 2020 

We anticipate that finalists will be selected by late January 2021 and all finalists will participate in open forums, either in-person or virtually.  We encourage your participation and will provide detailed information prior to these forums regarding how to participate and how to provide feedback.

We will continue to provide updates as the search process moves forward. If you have any suggestions or questions or would like to make a confidential inquiry or nomination, please feel free to reach out to our ACCT Search Consultants:
