Smart Action Plan

Hello, Sharks! We are here to help and we want you to succeed!

You have landed on this page because you are registering to repeat a course at MDC.

Let's try something different…

Together, we will try a new approach to successful completion of the course and ensure you move forward with your studies.  We will start with identifying what really went wrong previously, and what you can do differently this time. Repeating the experience, both inside and outside of the class, in the same way, will not bring about a better result. We are asking you to think in a new way about what it takes to be successful in this course and work closely with us to seek support at MDC!

We can help you get started with this process, connect you with a variety of support services, and explore the best placement in terms of the course session and instructional delivery  â€“ in Person, MDC Live, Blended, or Online.
