Access Granted: Empowering Innovation & Inclusion in Student Affairs
Wednesday, June 24 to Friday, June 26, 2026
Embassy Suites Santa Ana – Orange County Airport

This year’s conference is designed to move us from conversation to action. Together, we’ll explore how innovation, equity, and inclusive leadership can transform the way we serve students across our 116 colleges.

Why you can’t miss PDC 2026:
• Inspiring keynote speakers and thought leaders advancing access and student success
• Dynamic workshops and breakout sessions focused on practical strategies you can take back to campus and activate
• A dedicated focus on accessibility, belonging, and inclusive design in student services
• Networking with colleagues and partners from across the California Community Colleges system
• Opportunities to share ideas, build collaborations, and strengthen our collective impact

Whether you work in student life, advising, basic needs, accessibility services, conduct, housing, equity programs, instruction, or leadership, this conference is built for you.

PDC is more than a conference, it’s a community of practitioners committed to opening doors for students.
