College of DuPage student Roma Khan talks about the Learning Commons.
A variety of academic support services are available online and in-person at the Glen Ellyn campus in Learning Commons - SRC 2102 and Learning Commons West - TEC 1016B.
Students often need help preparing for a test or navigating through their coursework. Other students may be doing fine in their coursework, but feel they could do even better with some assistance. Assistance with Blackboard and MyAccess navigation, and GED preparation is also available. These services are free of charge for currently enrolled COD students. For more information on Learning Commons use, view Learning Commons Policies or view the Annual Report to read more about the Learning Commons.
