The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute invites faculty to submit course proposals for the summer and fall 2026 terms.
For over 20 years, OLLI has provided educational and enrichment opportunities for adults aged 50 and better. Programming can be offered as lectures, hands-on workshops, on and off-campus field trips, or keynote-style presentations. Most programming is delivered in one to six sessions (90 minutes each). Instructors and participants enjoy a stress-free learning environment with no tests or grades.
Faculty from all disciplines are invited to propose courses. OLLI is committed to offering diverse programming that represents every college and school at Fresno State.
We strongly encourage faculty to consider proposals for in-person courses, but we also offer courses on Zoom or in hybrid formats. For examples of the wide range of programming OLLI offers, please view our Spring 2026 Catalog. Many OLLI Instruction volunteers their time, but you may request our small stipend with the approval of the department chair and dean. Teaching courses for OLLI makes an excellent addition to RTP files.
To learn more, we invite you to RSVP to one of our Zoom information sessions here.
