Academic Resource Center/ATTAIN Lab
The Academic Resource Center, also known as the Advanced Technology Training and Information Networking (ATTAIN) Lab, is a dedicated computer lab that offers interactive software, electronic databases, media systems and other materials designed to enhance student learning outcomes through the use of technology. Students may use the lab to reinforce and/or supplement classroom instruction or to study independently. The ATTAIN Lab enables digital parity among area residents by making computers, information technology and the Internet accessible to all. Any member of the community can register to use the lab at no cost. The self-paced software programs can be accessed on-site or remotely.
