When we invest in our students, we invest in the future of our communities!

For a decade, LA College Promise has expanded access to higher education, offering two years of tuition-free education to first-time, full-time students. Since its launch, more than 50,000 students have participated, pursuing degrees, transferring to universities, and preparing for careers.

We proudly celebrated this milestone at LATTC, which hosted the College Promise Careers Institute, bringing together leaders nationwide to explore workforce development, emerging technologies, and student success.

Chancellor Alberto J. Román delivered opening and luncheon remarks, highlighting the importance of investing in our students and their futures.

Thank you to LACCD panelists Dr. Jim Lancaster, Vice Chancellor of Academic and Student Affairs, and LA Harbor College President Luis Dorado for sharing our District’s insights with programs nationwide!

Special thanks to Assemblymember Mike Fong for his support since the program’s launch and former Assemblymember Miguel Santiago for his longstanding advocacy. Their leadership has helped make this milestone possible.

Here’s to 10 years of impact and continued opportunities for future generations of changemakers!

Meet Monique Nogueira from LATTC!

Originally from Brazil, Monique earned her bachelor’s degree in architecture and spent nearly a decade working in interior design before moving to Los Angeles to pursue new opportunities. She enrolled at LATTC in Summer 2025, where she discovered a passion for environmental design. During her first semester, Monique teamed up with fellow students to earn second place in the “Fan Favorite” category at the Shade Zones design competition, competing against 50 teams from 12 colleges!

Monique is set to graduate with her associate degree later this year and hopes to pursue a master’s degree and build a career in environmental design. She dreams of one day returning to LATTC as a professor, inspiring and supporting future students through the same mentorship and guidance that helped shape her own journey.

Congratulations, Monique, on your achievements and inspiring journey!

Creating opportunities for student success begins with the people who believe in our students and their potential to achieve greatness!

LACCD Chancellor Dr. Alberto J. Román had the honor of delivering opening remarks at the 57th Annual CCCEOPSA Conference, joining hundreds of dedicated educators, counselors, and student advocates from across California who share a commitment to expanding educational access and opportunity.

The conference served as a powerful reminder of the impact that Extended Opportunity Programs and Services (EOPS) have on students across our community colleges. Beyond providing resources and support, EOPS professionals help students overcome barriers, navigate challenges, and build pathways toward brighter futures.

At LACCD, we recognize and celebrate the changemakers who work tirelessly to ensure every student feels seen, supported, and empowered to succeed.
