Mission & Goals

Background

Since 1994 the Oklahoma Distance Learning Association has been dedicated to promoting the development and application of techniques and technologies that eliminate the barrier of time and place in delivering quality education and training.

Among our members are K-12 educators, higher education institutions, vocational and technical educators, area education agencies, state and federal training groups, and continuing medical and corporate training professionals.

Through technology conferences, meetings, sponsorship of seminars, and our listserv, we seek to gather and cross-pollinate the collective expertise of our members, technology vendors, other distance learning practitioners, and policy makers in both the academic and training arenas.

Please join us in this effort. Share your organization’s distance learning news, events, and ideas. At each of our technology conferences, exhibitors have played a critical role by sponsoring events and demonstrating emerging technology. From paying for dinners to implementing an entire working distance learning classroom, our exhibitors have demonstrated time and again that they are truly dedicated to the alternative delivery of education and training.

ODLA welcomes both individual and institutional membership. Individual members are those who either pay their own dues or have only marginal institutional support. Institutional members are for larger organizations wishing to spread access to ODLA services among more employees.

ODLA hosts an array of programs and activities. In conjunction with most annual meetings of the Association, ODLA sponsors a forum on topics of critical importance to education and training delivered at a distance.
