Glendale Community College

Glendale Community College is a public community college in Glendale, California, providing transfer education, career preparation and continuing education. Its Verdugo campus supports college-credit instruction, while the Garfield campus offers continuing education and the Montrose Professional Development Center provides workforce training. The college serves students from Glendale, the greater Los Angeles region and beyond through campus and online programs. Its origins lie in a 1926 community vote, with classes beginning in 1927 and a move to the present Verdugo site in 1937. An elected board of trustees governs the Glendale Community College District, supported by a superintendent-president and shared governance involving campus groups.
