About USDLA
The United States Distance Learning Association was founded in 1987 and based on the premise
of creating a powerful alliance to meet the burgeoning education and
training needs of learning
communities via new concepts of the fusion of communication technologies with learning in
broad multidiscipline applications. We were the first nonprofit distance learning association in
the United States to support distance learning research, development, and praxis across the
complete arena of education, training, and communications. The learning communities that the
USDLA addresses are: pre-K/12, higher education, continuing education, corporate training,
