History

[edit]

In the fall of 1975, Woodland offered courses in an outreach program. In 1981 theCalifornia Postsecondary Education Commissionlabeled Woodland as an official education center. In 1990, Woodland Center (now Woodland Community College) relocated to its current 120 acres (49 ha) parcel of land. In 1999,Yuba Community College Districtnotified its intent for Woodland Center to become a self-sufficient community college, the same year that a Child Development center was opened on campus. The next year the district received the approval from the State Chancellor's office to begin Woodland Center's process of being a comprehensive college.[1]

In 2006, Woodland Community College began the accreditation process through theWestern Association of Schools and Colleges, completing the process in June 2008 with the notification of initial accreditation.[1]
