The California Community College system is implementing a Common Course Numbering (CCN) system to make transferring easier! Under Assembly Bill 1111 (Berman), courses with the same content will have the same number across all community colleges in the state. This means less confusion, better planning, and a smoother transfer process!

All common course numbering courses will start with a "C" in the course number.
