OTAN provides activities and resources to support our adult education colleagues.

Thursday, October 13 at 12 pm. CDLC (California Distance Learning Cooperative) - Canvas: Q & A with a Canvas Expert for Administrators. Adult Education Administrators are invited to speak directly with a Canvas Expert from Instructure. This session is designed for CA adult education agencies participating in CDLC. Some system resources, products, and other services may be unavailable through other (non-CDLC) agencies. Consequently, priority will be given to members though anyone can attend.
