The Technology and Distance Learning Symposium is OTAN’s annual conference with dynamic, hands-on presentations and lively discussions that show participants how to integrate technology to enhance the learner experience, extend the classroom to learners through blended and distance learning, and help adult education programs be more effective and efficient.

Workforce issues are driving today’s headlines. Labor, industry, and supply chains are all experiencing disruptions whose origins our system is poised to address.

The National Council for Workforce Education has announced the location and dates for their annual conference: Hyatt Hotel - Inner Harbor Baltimore, MD

Skills Summit is an opportunity to mobilize and elevate the voices of our network to move our collective skills agenda forward.

How do we impact and sustain adaptability and flexibility in these dynamic times? Adult educators must consider how to reshape the integration of the contextualized aspects of adult learners and adult education, to remain part of this transformational movement of continuous engagement and creating better programs even as the urgency of the past two years starts to fade.

From across the U.S., practitioners, instructors, administrators, directors, board members, and students gather to lead change in the adult literacy field. The conference features over 100 presentations and workshops that explore how organizations and practitioners can collaborate to build instructional capacity and deliver innovative, effective services that benefit adult learners.
