What are the necessary background skills needed for each course?
High school level abilities in reading and math are required. All of the computer related courses in the program require previous experience in using a computer. More specifically, how to use Windows; navigate with the Start button, task bar, and mouse; how to save files and organize them into folders; use floppy disks and CD-ROMs. If you have no prior experience using a computer, taking DPR 100 – Introduction to Computers in your first semester is recommended.
