The program allows students to earn an Associate degree in Business Administration or Early Childhood Education in about two years.

Most of the courses offered can be taken online or in a hybrid format. Once students complete their Associate degree, they have the option of pursuing a Bachelor’s degree at one of Moorpark College’s transfer-partner universities. These institutions, which also offer programs tailored to busy adults, include CSU Channel Islands, and California Lutheran University, among others. Moorpark College president, Julius Sokenu, looks forward to the launch of PACE. “We are excited to offer this new program to our community’s busy adults,” shares Sokenu. “As the state’s top community college for student completion, Moorpark College is well suited to help PACE students advance their educational and career goals.” -More- MOORPARK COLLEGE, one of three colleges in the Ventura County Community College District, was founded in 1967.
