Facilitate a 90-minute multi-week course or a one-time 60-minute OLLI Talk. You can share your expertise and enthusiasm for a topic or area of interest with OLLI members, and they will enjoy a new learning experience.
In addition, at the beginning of each term, the OLLI staff offers workshops to help you become acquainted with OLLI and its members and to share best practices for facilitating and presenting in the classroom.
If interested or if you have questions, please the OLLI office at (617) 287-7312 or email the our proposal account at proposalolli@gmail.com. Curious about what courses/topics have been offered in the past? Check out the 2025 Fall Program Catalog.
