Since 1957, Community College of Baltimore County has opened the doors to accessible, affordable, high-quality education empowering generations of area residents to transform their lives and the lives of others. Each year, nearly 50,000 students enroll at the college’s main campuses, extension centers and online to make their starts, earn degrees, and launch and build careers.
CCBC offers the region’s most expansive selection of degree, certificate and workplace certification programs that prepare students for transfer, job entry and career advancement in such industries as business, education, health care, information technology, cybersecurity, construction management and transportation. Designated as the “Best Community College” among the Maryland Daily Record’s 2023 Reader Rankings, CCBC is also nationally recognized as a leader in innovative learning strategies and among the nation’s top associate degree producers.
CCBC is proud to partner with Leadership Baltimore County, and as stewards of the community, share several goals. These include bringing diverse populations together to enhance relationships, partnerships and learning opportunities for personal and professional growth; strengthening the economic, social and civic fabric of our community; and inspiring innovative solutions to issues in our community. Both organizations value investing in people to assist them in realizing their full leadership potential.
Don Elliott, senior director, Continuing Education Operations and Outcomes at CCBC, is a 2024 graduate of the LBC program. “Leadership Baltimore County helped open my eyes not just to the wide variety of issues facing Baltimore County, but also the dedicated organizations and individuals working hard to address these concerns,” said Elliott. “I met representatives from law enforcement, social services, healthcare, education, planning and economic development, and private business and learned how by working together we can tackle the challenges facing our communities.”
Elliott’s department, CCBC Continuing Education, serves multiple audiences, including youth, career preparation, job skills enhancement, life enrichment and seniors. This program enabled him to network with a variety of groups and agencies working with these populations to learn more about what is needed and what is available. “This helps me in turn influence CCBC Continuing Education course and program offerings to meet the needs of our community,” he said.
CCBC is located on six campuses in the Baltimore County metropolitan area of central Maryland.
Three full-service campuses include CCBC Catonsville, CCBC Dundalk and CCBC Essex.
These locations give you the full college experience and offer a broad selection of classes, training programs, events, activities and student support services.
Additional centers in Hunt Valley, Owings Mills and Randallstown bring education even closer to your home and work.
