Cesar E. Chavez Campus Grand Opening

Visit the newest San Diego Continuing Education facility and find out what all the buzz is about.

César E. Chávez Campus is the Campus of Excellence for Healthcare Careers. Other classes and programs at the campus include business and entrepreneurship, Certificate Programs, Citizenship, Community Education (low fee classes), Emeritus Program (classes for age 55+), English as a Second Language, High School Diploma and Equivalency/Basic Skills, and Parent Education.

San Diego Continuing Education engaged the surrounding Barrio Logan community during the planning of our new state-of-the-art building. As a result, many ideas from residents, businesses and stakeholders from the local community were included in the design of the facility and parking structure.
