DATES AND DEADLINES

Welcome to UCCI

UCCI is an institution of higher learning that contributes to Caymanian society by advancing knowledge and developing creative graduates through our cultural, social, economic and environmental activities. - UCCI Mission

Government-sponsored tertiary education in the Cayman Islands began in 1975 when the Community College was established as a part-time institution. From 1976 to 1981 three other institutions - the Trade School, the Hotel School and the Marine School - were founded. These schools were located at different sites and were supervised either by the Ministry of Education or the Ministry of Tourism and Labour.

In 1985, the Government of the Cayman Islands decided to centralise the administration of all public post-secondary educational institutions on the islands. The Hotel Training School, the Marine & Trade Training School and the Secretarial/Business Studies Section of the Sixth Form of the Cayman Islands High School were amalgamated to form the Community College of the Cayman Islands.

In 1987, by an Act of the Legislative Assembly, the College was established as a semi-autonomous post-secondary educational institution. More
