About COLLO
The Coalition of Lifelong Learning Organizations (COLLO) was started decades ago as a coalition of organizations working to advance adult and lifelong learning. We have brought together leaders of these organizations to advance knowledge, find common ground, and take collective action to benefit adult learners in areas like access, cost, and removal of barriers to participation in education at all levels.
With the growing importance of adult and continuing education to the United States, COLLO provides a forum for:
- exchanging information among member organizations
- building cooperation and collaborative action among member organizations
- developing, maintaining, and improving lifelong learning, adult, and continuing education throughout the United States and internationally
- reviewing new adult and continuing education programs, national policy, and innovative examples of the use of technology
- promoting the best practices of adult, continuing education and lifelong learning
COLLO has achieved these goals through awareness building, advocacy, input on and support of legislation at the state and national levels and in collective action where consensus can be Coalition members review new adult and continuing education programs, national policy, and innovative examples of the use of technology.
COLLO plays an active role in promoting the best practices of adult, continuing education and lifelong learning.
