Welcome!
To meet an identified community need, College of DuPage has created the Vocational Skills Program, offering courses to students challenged with mild to moderate cognitive impairment. The courses are developmental-level, non-transferable credit courses designed to develop vocational skills that can lead to competitive, entry-level employment and enhance everyday living skills. We offer courses that meet two days a week, two hours a day for eight weeks on campus in Glen Ellyn, satellite campuses, and at community-based locations. The students are integrated into the College of DuPage campus life by being supported through the student services that are afforded to all C.O.D. students.
