The USDLA was formed in 1987. At that time, companies like Yahoo and Google were still years away. “Power users” were boasting of their Intel 386 processors. In that context, DL was a concept well outside the educational mainstream. Granted, a few people knew something of the process but hands-on DL experience was rare. USDLA, then, provided a means for these pioneers to find one another.
Today, with more than one-third of college students taking an online class, it’s a far different world and USDLA remains an international leader is providing a unique community for members to engage with other DL professionals. Today’s USDLA stands out as a remarkable resource for teachers and administrators who want to enhance the learning experience.
Please Note: USDLA membership DOES NOT mean endorsement in any way. Only those Institutions who have undergone the USDLA certification process can make this claim. A list of current USDLA members who have undergone this comprehensive certification process can be found here.
