Connecting Leaders to Solutions
The Alliance for Distance Education in California is an association of professionals dedicated to the development of distance learning.

ADEC is the only California-based organization which emphasizes cooperation between all segments of education, Kindergarten through university, lifelong learning, and business training, and represents a continuation of ADEC's goal to promote partnerships and collaborations among all levels of education and training. ADEC was founded in 1989.

Through the ADEC Summit and other sponsored events during the year, ADEC strives to provide quality collaboration opportunities for all segments of the California distance learning community.

ADEC projects, such as MatrixMath, bring innovative educational opportunities to students in California and beyond.
