Peralta Community College District

Board Policies

Board Policies are statements or intent/guidelines that are adopted by the Board of Trustees to be used by the administration in the development and implementation of regulations and procedures for operating the District. The Board is the ultimate decision-maker in those areas assigned to it by state and federal laws and regulations.

District Administrative Procedures

Administrative Procedures are issued by the Chancellor as statements of regulations, rules, and practices to be used in implementing Board Policy. Administrative Procedures are consistent with the intent of Board Policy. Administrative Procedures are revised as deemed necessary by the Chancellor.

The Peralta Community College District uses the Board Policy and Administrative Procedure Service provided by the Community College League of California. CCLC provides updates biannually (in Fall and Spring) in order to ensure that board policies and administrative procedures reflect recent revisions in federal/state statutes and regulations as well as accreditation standards to ensure the board policies and administrative procedures remain current. The District also regularly reviews board policies and administrative procedures in order to make any needed local updates.
