OEDSA - Ohio Education Data Systems Association

OEDSA (Ohio Education Data Systems Association) was formed in the 1970's to serve as the "voice of computer usage in Ohio education" and to provide a common professional organization which would facilitate the communication of information relative to data processing within the administrative offices.

Over the years, OEDSA has evolved into an organization that provides timely in-services (conferences) to help both the Information Technology Centers (OECN) and district staff, along with others in the education environment, in the use of software, hardware and other related topics.

The OEDSA Board of Directors plan and run the conference. Board membership is made up of ITC and district personnel from all over the state of Ohio. The current board members are:
