Spring 2020 PACE Classes

Chabot PACE Degree & Transfer Program

for Working Adults

SPRING 2024 classes meet January 16th-May 24th

unless otherwise specified.

PACE Students have preferential access to PACE courses IF

they enroll no later than December 14, 2023.

PACE is a multi-semester Learning Community designed for people who work daytime jobs. Learn more about PACE.

NEW STUDENTS: Classes marked with an * (in CRN column) are recommended for students new to college.
COURSE LOAD: Most full-time working adults can manage 1-3 classes per semester. One 3-unit class requires about 9 hours of work per week (3 hours of class time plus about 6 hours of study, although this differs from class to class).
Take a class load that is realistic for you & your life!
PACE alternates some classes in an effort to offer both in-person and online classes so students can select their preferred method with some advance planning. See notes in CRN column to identify these courses.
If there are any changes to this schedule after printing (such as Room numbers), CLASS-Web has the most current info.
REGISTER at CLASS-Web or in-person at Student Online Services (Bldg. 700 Lobby).

NOTE: If you believe you are an admitted PACE Student and get a “Major Restriction” message when you try to register for PACE classes, please contact PACE Counselor Patrise Diaz: pdiaz@chabotcollege.edu
