College Success

College Success Class

A three credit hour course, EDUC 1010 College Success, is offered each semester to help students adjust and function effectively in the academic community. This course also provides an opportunity for students to learn and adopt methods necessary for success in higher education. This course may transfer to a four-year college or university as an elective.

Computer Labs

McCook Community College has multiple computer classrooms and a number of computer stations available to students. The lower level of the library has computers for student use and for computer-aided instruction.

Both campuses of North Platte Community College have multiple computer classrooms and computer stations available to students in programs, classes, or for use as a lab. At the South Campus, the computer lab in the Learning Commons is open to students during normal hours of operation. On the North Campus, computer labs are maintained by departmental personnel and may be used during designated hours.

To better serve students, MPCC offers foundations education courses designed to help students master basic skills necessary to meet minimum entry standards expected for college level courses. Students may be assigned or advised to take developmental courses according to needs determined or placement testing.
