What does it mean to take developmental education classes?
Developmental courses are those courses in reading, writing and math that students sometimes need to ensure success in courses that fit into a degree plan. Courses in this category cover some of the basics, which can help you get off to the best start possible in introductory college courses. While these courses can be very beneficial to helping students complete their college programs, they can also add more time to the certificate or degree process. Students may want to consider all possible options before starting developmental education courses, including working with instructors in ABSD for a little while longer to make sure all skills in these areas are at the college level. Instructors in ABSD can help students identify the areas in which they may need further study before they move into a college program.
