The Digital Bridge
Academy (DBA) is an award winning program designed to accelerate students to successful full time college level performance in one semester in order to complete the students’ personal goals. The DBA is NOT a computer training program. The DBA offers a carefully sequenced
training program of academic support, instruction on how to grow
in self-knowledge and self-discipline, work experience, and student
support to prepare students for success in careers with a future.
These careers are in: Computer Information Systems, Engineering,
Business, Management, Allied Health majors (Nursing, Radiology,
Dental Hygiene, etc.,) lab technician careers (Biotechnology, Marine
Science), Criminal Justice, Teaching, and other high-wage or high-demand
fields.
|
The goals of the DBA
are to help you in one semester:
- become a successful college student
- carry a full-time load of college-level
courses
- find a career with a future in a
field that is right for you
|
 |
The DBA will help you reassess
your previous educational experiences, recognize your own and others'
learning and interaction styles, and understand your true abilities
and motivation profiles. The DBA will teach you how to work successfully
in teams, which is required in many of these careers. You will learn
to become an effective leader.
All of this is done in a fun
and stimulating classroom environment where you get to know your
classmates as true friends who will support you to meet your goals.
In the first semester you will have six classes taught by five Cabrillo
College Instructors. You and your classmates will take all your
courses in the same classroom while the Instructors rotate in and
out.
We invite you to come to an
information session to find out more about the DBA and about how
we can help you build a bridge to the future. Click
