Taxonomy of Programs: California Community Colleges

Download this Document

This 6th Edition of the Taxonomy of Programs (TOP) was prepared under the direction of Dona Boatright, Interim Vice Chancellor for Educational Services, and LeBaron Woodyard, Dean of Academic Affairs and Instructional Resources. The primary author was Charlie Klein, Specialist in Academic Planning.

The first printing was February 2004. This reprinting of November 2004 corrects some errors and makes some revisions necessary for data consistency. A list of all the corrections will be found on p. viii of the Introduction. In addition, crosswalk tables from the 5th to the 6th edition of the TOP and from the 6th edition of the TOP to the federal Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) have been added as appendices.

Questions about the Taxonomy may be directed to Charlie Klein at (916) 322-6888, or e-mail to cklein@cccco.edu. Suggestions for future revisions or additions are welcome.
