Dan Combellick

It has been my pleasure and privilege to be a full-time faculty member in the Computer Information Systems Department (CIS) since the Fall 1991 semester. In addition to teaching our introductory courses, I teach courses in our Networking and Cybersecurity programs of study.  This includes industry certifications with CompTIA  A+, Network+, and Cisco's CCNA certification.

I earned my bachelors degree from the College of Business at Arizona State University and my Masters degree in Educational Media and Computers from ASU as well.

I have three children, one son and two daughters - all three who have taken classes here at SCC at one time or another.

In addition to being a full-time faculty, I am also the CIS Department Chair - so if you have questions about our CIS classes, programs of study, certificates and degrees, please feel free to ask me for guidance.
