Learning Communities

CGCC's Learning Communities connect students in two or more shared courses to help deepen understanding across subjects.

The concept is simple: Students learn more by taking the classes together than by taking them separately. Some courses are blended together into one classroom, while others are linked by shared assignments, topics and projects. Students spend the entire time learning alongside the same group of peers, making the learning experience truly shared.

Learning Communities help students grow academically and build meaningful connections with peers, creating a supportive environment where they can learn, collaborate and succeed together.


Benefits of joining a Learning Community include: 

  • Deepening academic understanding by exploring course material in greater depth and making connections between subjects.
  • Connecting coursework to goals by pairing classes with academic interests and future career paths.
  • Growing professionally together by building relationships with peers who share similar majors.
  • Taking an active role in learning through engaging classroom experiences and meaningful involvement in the campus and broader community.
