Developmentally Delayed Learner (DDL) Program

The Developmentally Delayed Learner program offers classes and new certificates designed especially for students with lower cognitive skills, i.e., students who exhibit below-average intellectual functioning and a potential for measurable achievement in an instructional or employment setting. The DDL program has classes for students with mild to moderate DDL and some classes for those individuals with more severe to profound DDL. The majority of classes are non-credit and are free.

The DDL program serves two specific areas of the community:

  1. Fairview Developmental Center, which is a large residential, state-run facility for individuals with severe to profound DDL. See more information under Fairview Developmental Center.
  2. The community DDL program serves students who reside and/or work in the community, in group homes, private homes, day programs, workshops, etc. This group is primarily mild to moderate DDL. Classes are offered in a variety of cities, including south Orange County. See more information under "Where are classes located," the "Fall 2009, Spring 2010, Summer 2010 Classes" and "Vocational Certificate."

A developmentally delayed learner is a student who exhibits below-average intellectual functioning and a potential for measurable achievement in instructional or employment settings.
