Your success is important. That’s why we’ve put together these resources for you.


English Help & Support

From tutoring, workshops, free textbooks and more, we’re here to help.

IAs tutor students individually or in groups, both in class or in the Center For Academic Success (CAS). IAs work closely with the instructor to improve students research and writing skills.  IAs provided direct support during English 3, supporting writing workshops, troubleshooting technology, and linking students to CAS.

CAS provides two drop-in, tutor-supported computer labs on main campus and one at the Chico Center. By law, these labs are available for academic use only.

CAS Rooms and Labs - Butte College

In-class access to technology is offered in most English 3 sections. In addition, Butte College is committed to making technology accessible for all students: http://www.smartsitesolutions.net/departments/cas/casrooms.html

CAS provides many resources in support of academic success for all Butte College students. We focus on helping students gain strategies and skills they can apply in a variety of settings and in a variety of ways across the curriculum. Services are free for all currently enrolled Butte College students, although students will be required to check in.

The service is provided during Math and English courses, honoring that students are often juggling a busy life while working toward their academic goal.
