The members of the board are elected to four-year positions by area. Candidate filings began July 18 and will be closed Aug. 12. Candidate packets are available through the County Elections office, a link to which is also available on the SBCCD home page. “The Board of Trustees is at the helm of the policy decisions made regarding the administration of our two colleges that serve more than 40,000 students per year, the Economic Development and Corporate Training division, our public broadcast TV and radio stations, KVCR and FNX, the First Nation’s Experience affiliate created in partnership with the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians," said Chancellor Bruce Baron. "They serve a vital leadership role in our community. These are important positions that need to be filled by those committed to enhancing our communities.” Baron said education is the key to improving the residents’ personal and professional lives and community colleges provide the necessary link between the K-12 and the university systems. "We are also the most significant provider of career and technical training in the Inland Empire, including preparing first responders like fire, nursing and peace officers," Baron said. "Our students receive top-quality education opportunities for the lowest cost in the country. Most of our students receive financial aid, and they all have a large array of courses and programs from which to select. Our faculty, staff and administrators look forward to working with a well-qualified, enthusiastic board that is dedicated to continuing to meet our mission.” The SBCCD is one of 72 community college districts within the California Community College system, the largest educational system in the world, which encompasses 113 community colleges. The SBCCD has an 90-year history of providing its community and students with quality and affordable vocational certificates, associate’s degrees and preparation for transfer to a four-year college or university through San Bernardino Valley College and Crafton Hills College. In addition, the Economic Development and Corporate Training Division (PDC) and KVCR TV-FM provide professional development and cultural and educational information to the community at large.
