DACC offers endless opportunities to

40 percent of recent area high school graduates and more than 30 percent of
recent area high school honors graduates attend DACC annually.
More than 50% of
students at DACC are enrolled in a transfer program that will lead to a
bachelor’s degree. DACC has agreements in place with many regional
universities to facilitate the transfer of credits. Students pursuing a
bachelor’s degree will save nearly $30,000 by completing the first two years
of coursework at DACC.
DACC is a leader in career
education offering down-state Illinois’ first Wind Energy program and the
state’s first NIMS-certified manufacturing program. Most career programs
lead to an associate degree following two years of full-time study. Many of
these programs also offer short-term certificate options. DACC participates
in 2 + 2 agreements that allow students pursuing a career degree in select
programs to transfer those credits to a four-year institution to complete a
Bachelor’s degree.
Developmental Education courses are available for those who wish to
improve math, reading, or rhetoric skills, or who need more preparation for
college-level work. Adult Education conducts GED and Basic Education courses
for high school completion, and English as a Second Language to improve
skills for non-native speakers. The Certified Nurse Assistant program offers
low-cost, short-term health care training leading to a high demand career.
Finally, Corporate and
Community Education offers customized corporate training services and
non-credit courses for community members who are seeking new knowledge,
experiences, and skills in non-academic areas.
