EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY OF THE LACCDReturn to Top
The Los Angeles Community Colleges affirm the principle that individuals should have opportunities to develop to their full potential. To that end, our main responsibility is to students and to the provision of education which benefits students and enables them to contribute to society. Our colleges, therefore, should be accessible to all individuals who have the capacity and motivation to profit from higher education. Curricula and services of our colleges should provide means for fulfilling the promise of open access. We recognize the necessity to adapt to the changing educational needs of the Los Angeles Community Colleges' communities and to the growing diversity among students. The quality of the educational experience is to be judged by its value to students and communities, not merely by quantitative appeal. We further recognize that academic freedom is essential to excellence in education.

HISTORY OF THE COLLEGEReturn to Top

Los Angeles Trade-Technical College has been serving the community for over seventy years. In response to the needs of industry to provide post-secondary vocational training, the college began in 1925 by offering a course in power sewing at a manufacturing plant. This led to the development of the Frank Wiggins Trade School, named after a chamber of commerce member who led in promoting the development of the Los Angeles area workforce. The school relocated to a new building on the corner of Venice Boulevard and Olive Street in 1926, and in the inter-war period, gained a reputation for excellence through the success of its graduates in industrial careers and in the dedication of its faculty and staff. During World War II, the college was extensively involved in labor force training in support of the federal War Production Program. The end of the war and the return of the economy to civilian purposes, together with the infusion of federal funds for training veterans, led to an expanded demand for education and training at the college. Accordingly, state-required academic subjects for the associate degree were added to the curricula, and in 1949, the college became Los Angeles Trade-Technical College, offering the associate degree in vocational disciplines. LATTC moved to its current location in 1957. In 1966, Metropolitan College, which had a strong business program, merged with Los Angeles Trade-Technical College, resulting in a broadening of course offerings. In 1969, LATTC joined the newly formed Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD), and today, LATTC is one of the nine colleges that comprise the district.

COLLEGE ADVISORY COMMITTEESReturn to Top
The demands of industry determine the various phases of business, technical and trade training carried on by the college. Placement and successful progress of students are the measures of effectiveness of the pre-employment training. Increased productivity, job satisfaction, and advancement of the employed trainee attest to the effectiveness of the program. For these reasons all training is developed and carried on with the advice and assistance of the college advisory committees. Membership in each of the groups is composed of community-wide representatives from labor and management, and from federal, state and local agencies who are concerned with the business, trade and technical programs offered. These advisory committees meet on the invitation of the college administration at least once a year and on additional occasions when considered necessary. They give counsel and advice in regard to evaluating training programs, approve plans to meet current training needs, review past accomplishments, and forecast trends affecting training and employment. Members of the various advisory committees are an important part of the educational program of the college. The people who serve on the committees are selected because of their leadership in the economic life of Los Angeles. The advisors bring to the college expert advice and sound thinking on business, trade and technical problems. Thus the work of the classroom reflects the rapid changes in community and industry.
