Learning Technologies: Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow
DET/CHE is a dynamic organization committed to providing
professional growth for its membership. Since its organization in 1985,
DET/CHE has emerged as a major force in bringing together various
sectors of higher education from both public and private colleges and
universities.
The network created among Directors of
Educational Technology is an invaluable resource for sharing ideas and
advancing the fields of instructional technology, multimedia, distance
education, and other forms of open learning that apply cutting-edge
technologies.

University of California, California State University and California
Community Colleges.

management concerns within media services across all levels of higher
education.
