The Learning Center
Our goal is to provide Sierra College students with the academic support they need in order to achieve success.
All students who use the Learning Center will automatically be enrolled in Skill Development 801, described as "Supervised Tutorials" in the college catalog. This is a non-credit course.

Flexibility is the reason you might choose drop-in tutoring. You can see a tutor as many times as you need to during the semester. To see when drop-in tutoring is available for your subject, look at the schedules below. To drop-in, bring your student ID and show up!
