Equal Opportunity at CCD

What Is Equal Opportunity?

Community College of Denver (CCD) is an affirmative action and equal opportunity employer/organization. The College does not discriminate on the basis of sex/gender, race, color, age, creed, national or ethnic origin, physical or mental disability, veteran status, pregnancy status, religion, or sexual orientation in its employment practices and educational programs and activities.

  • Individuals with limited English proficiency interested in career and technical education programs will be assessed and offered options to support their participation in CCD programs.
  • CCD subscribes to Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in any educational program or activity receiving federal funds, as well as to Title IV of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in any program or activity receiving federal funds.
