Along with career and computer courses, you will be offered personal development instruction in areas such as health and wellness, nutrition, stress management, healthy relationships, self-determination, and active lifestyle. This combination of academic and personal skills development forms a solid foundation year and a clear pathway for you to enroll in other college programs.
