These courses allow students to build developmental math and reading skills they need to succeed in their program as well as obtain and maintain employment. The goal is to make sure you feel confident to take on challenges in your life such as returning to school or taking on a new job.

Students who do not pass their entrance exam with the required proficiency will be referred to skill development classes. The classes are taught by Davis Tech faculty, these classes provide students with basic math, reading, language, spelling, grammar and basic computer skills required by their programs. Students can also enroll in order to improve their current academic skills. Classes are offered in a blended format that uses a variety of teaching aides (computer simulations, one-on-one tutoring and possible video, audio clips, etc) to help students master basic concepts to meet program entrance requirements and employment goals.
