The college is recognized nationally as a leader in advanced technology programs and maintains some of the lowest tuition rates in the state.
Camden County College strives to provide accessible, affordable higher education and occupational study to residents of Camden County and the surrounding community. The college has grown from its founding in 1967 to operate multiple campuses and instructional locations, including the Blackwood Campus, Camden City Campus (established 1969, full campus status 1991), William G. Rohrer Center in Cherry Hill (opened 2000), and the Regional Emergency Training Center (assumed 2011).

The college is governed by a Board of Trustees that recognizes the broad range of educational needs in Camden County. The Board oversees programs designed to serve multiple purposes: providing associate degree programs in liberal arts and sciences, occupational fields including business, health services, and industrial technologies, and both degree-credit and non-credit programs responsive to community educational and cultural needs.
