CCCApply has implemented a series of small changes to a handful of Education page questions/data fields in order to align with specific CCCCO MIS DED data value changes (SB11, SB15) that took effect on July 1, 2020. These changes to both CCCApply and MIS comply with the revisions made to California Senate Bill 554 (SB554) which now allows students currently enrolled in an adult education program to concurrently enroll at a California community college to support their pursuit of a Certificate of High School Proficiency.
