What We Offer

The Academic Skills Center provides free workshops open to all De Anza students, and Adjunct Skills and Self-Paced Skills courses. Please see details below.

Adjunct Skills Courses

Adjunct Study Skills (Skills 232) provides study skills assistance for selected content courses at De Anza. Students learn study strategies such as test taking, time management, note taking and textbook reading, and relate these skills to the specific content course linked to the skills class. Adjunct Skills courses combine weekly small group sessions with self-paced laboratories and workshops.

Self-Paced Skills Courses

Self-Paced Skills courses are flexible, individualized, open-entry 1/2 unit Pass/No Pass courses in study skills, reading, writing, vocabulary, spelling, grammar, and basic math.
