Board of Trustees Policies and Administrative Procedures
Board Policies and Administrative Procedures work hand-in-hand to actualize the vision and priorities of the District.
Board Policies
Board Policies (BPs) are guidelines officially adopted by the Board of Trustees that establish standards for the District. They define goals and practices as well as implement federal and state laws and regulations.
Administrative Procedures
Administrative Procedures (APs) provide the rules and guidelines by which BPs are implemented. Administrative Procedures are decided on by the Chancellor, college presidents, and other District administration. APs don’t require Board action to establish or update.
Updating Board Policies & Administrative Procedures
Both Board Policies and Administrative Procedures are routinely reviewed and updated as necessary to keep current with changes in laws or to clarify language.
Document Library
Go to the District's official documents library to view and search for Board Meeting Agendas and Minutes, Administrative Guides, Board Resolutions, and more.
