PACE PROGRAM The PACE Program, a Degree and Transfer Program for working adults, is a Learning Community designed to help working adults pursue an AA degree and transfer to CSU. PACE is de- signed to meet the needs of students who work 9 a.m.–5 p.m. jobs and so require convenient evening, and online courses. The PACE Program fulfills both AA degree requirements at Chabot and CSU General Education transfer requirements. PACE is a “college within a college” which helps build a sense of community among students and instructors. Students take all of their General Education classes together over multiple semesters. PACE offers students support, flexibility, and networking opportunities, as well as specialized services from an academic counselor. PACE offers clear pathways toward certain academic goals, and is an excellent destination for students starting or returning to college, and who wish to pursue careers in Social Science (Psychology, Sociology, etc.), Education, or Business. Most PACE students earn an AA degree and then transfer to complete their Bachelor of Arts degree. Our primary transfer destination is CSU East Bay’s PACE Program, which offers majors in Human Development, Liberal Studies, and a Business Minor/option. Other Bay Area transfer colleges include, among others, Holy Names University and St. Mary’s.
