CAOLA is Pennsylvania’s largest online learning consortium, educating more than 40,000 students a year in more than 150 school districts throughout 11 Pennsylvania Intermediate Units.

And as a partner since the beginning, EdisonLearning is proud to be involved in these efforts.”

These experienced instructors provide support to their students by grading and providing effective feedback, providing academic interventions and other asynchronous remediation.
