Students in front of a bannerFrom Nov. 21-24, the Office of Mentoring & Coaching took ten students and three staff members to Los Angeles for the Circle of Change Leadership Conference. This transformative experience empowered first-generation and culturally diverse students to build leadership skills for success at Central Piedmont and beyond.

  • Conference Highlights:
    • Inspiring keynote speakers and interactive panels with industry leaders.
    • Opportunities to network with peers and mentors nationwide.
    • Critical self-reflection exercises to foster personal growth.
    • Scholarships, prizes, and attendance badges earned by all participants.

Our students represented Central Piedmont with pride and returned with valuable skills and connections for their future success.

The New Website is Coming Tuesday (4/30)!

What’s in it for me, as a student?
We’re only days away from the launch of the new website (cpcc.edu)! It will include a dedicated “Current Students” section that’s accessible from every page on the site. The purpose of the area is to provide quick links to the content and tools you need to be a Central Piedmont student, such as Blackboard, MyCollege, and student email, plus links to support services and ways to get involved at the college. If we missed a link to information you commonly use, just let us know by emailing the Help Desk at helpdesk@cpcc.edu.

What’s new?
This is not a new surface put on the old website: Central Piedmont teams plowed through the nearly 30,000 pages of content on the current cpcc.edu website and create a thoroughly modern, student-focused way to present the information the site visitors needed to know. The new site is just that: completely new.

The look and feel, functionality, and voice of the new website were created with a lot of input from hundreds of faculty, staff, and students like you… from multiple focus groups, to in-person meetings with Student Government Association (SGA) leaders, to surveys all students could use to give feedback. We are confident we heard what you want, and built a new website that will meet — and exceed — your needs.

So come celebrate with us! As a reminder, you’re invited to Central Piedmont’s celebration next Tuesday, April 30, as we launch the college’s new logo, new colors, and the new website (cpcc.edu). Here are details:​
