CCRI Commencement

Commencement is the celebration of our graduating class and an opportunity to look back on the journey of our remarkable students, some of whom will enter the workforce, transfer to a four-year university to continue their education, or apply the knowledge gained at CCRI to whatever comes next in their journey.

On Tuesday, May 12, 2026, the Community College of Rhode Island (CCRI) will celebrate its 61st Commencement Ceremony. Held at the Amica Mutual Pavilion, the event will mark the culmination of another academic year at CCRI, a year of transformation, opportunity, and achievement for Rhode Islanders and each of our graduates.

In 2025, more than 1,000 graduates crossed the stage to receive their degrees and certificates, cheered on by over 5,000 family members, friends, faculty, and alumni in a day filled with pride, emotion, and inspiration.  We invite you to make 2026 an even bigger celebration, please save the date and share with your friends and family - no tickets are required for attendance.
