Curriculum & Program Development Team
The Curriculum & Program Development Team reviews the course proposals and recommends the instructors for each term. Input from many perspectives is important as we select interesting classes that draw new and returning OLLI students. Team members are always on the lookout for new and stimulating instructors – especially locally for our in-person classes. Have a question or want to know the current opportunities for volunteering? Please fill out our volunteer form here: Volunteer Request Form.
Events & Experiences Team
The Events & Experiences Team offers fun activities outside the classroom - both locally and far away. Want a walking tour of Ventura or a visit to the Gibbon Conservation Center? How about a personal tour of Getty Villa or trip to Iceland? We do that! Want an OLLI book club or gastronomic gathering? Almost anything legal is possible.

Membership Engagement & Outreach Team
The Membership Engagement & Outreach Team is the lifeblood of OLLI. You can share your enthusiasm by telling others about the fun and value of OLLI classes or events.
