ONTARIO, Calif., Aug. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Platt College celebrated its Class of 2026 on Saturday, August 29, as graduates crossed the stage at the college's annual commencement ceremony, marking an important milestone in their education and the beginning of the next chapter in their careers. Platt continued its tradition of hosting the ceremony at the Ontario Convention Center, marking the 20th year the college has held the event at the venue.

Surrounded by family, friends, faculty, and staff, graduates from Platt College campuses throughout Southern California gathered to celebrate their accomplishments and the opportunities ahead.

"One of my favorite things about leading Platt College is walking through our campuses and seeing our students working toward this moment," said Josh Zuckerwise, CEO of Platt College. "To then have the privilege of standing in front of them at graduation and seeing them reach that goal is incredibly special. They should be proud of everything they have accomplished, and our entire Platt team is honored to celebrate this achievement with them."

The Class of 2026 includes graduates earning associate and bachelor's degrees, as well as diplomas, each preparing them for specific career paths. Graduates have developed the skills and knowledge needed to pursue careers in healthcare, technology, business, legal services, and design.
