Reimagining the Concord ÐÓ°É´«Ã½
Cal State East Bay's Concord ÐÓ°É´«Ã½, located off Ygnacio Parkway in the rolling hills of Contra Costa County, is the public university in Contra Costa County for those who want quality education in a small college setting at an affordable price. For over 25 years, Cal State East Bay’s Concord ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ has been dedicated to meeting the educational and workforce needs of Contra Costa County and beyond by providing quality degree, credential and certificate programs in a variety of industries and fields.
As a starting point for reimagining the creation and delivery of career-centered education at the Concord ÐÓ°É´«Ã½, the Reimagining the Concord ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ Task Force members focused attention on the evolving trends and unmet needs of regional owners, professionals, and managers primarily in the region of Contra Costa County and the northern Tri-Valley. The Concord ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ can be positioned as a proactive, accessible, and readily available resource and community partner for career-seekers, career-changers and mid-career practitioners in the region.
The Reimagine Concord Task Force developed proposed recommendations in support of Future Directions goals and priorities. Read the June 2022 Task Force Report.
