Course Proposal for OLLI at FIU Winter 2023

Course Proposal for OLLI at FIU

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Florida International University (OLLI at FIU) welcomes applications to deliver educational content or facilitate social activities. Proposals are accepted year-round and include in-person or virtual options (All programming is currently being administered virtually until further notice.).

To submit a proposal, complete the following. Additional supporting documents may be emailed directly to Sherry Andre at shandre@fiu.edu.

Submission of a proposal does not guarantee acceptance. OLLI at FIU has a volunteer Curriculum Committee that reviews proposals to determine if the content is a good fit for our program and members.
