ABOUT PLATO
The name and acronym - Participatory Learning and Teaching Organization, or PLATO - defines us well.

PLATO is a self-directed, volunteer-led, nonprofit organization serving more than 1,400 lifelong learners living in and around Dane County.  Most members are approaching or actively enjoying retirement.  All share a passion for learning and a desire to stay engaged with the world and with others who share their interests. No formal education or university affiliation is necessary to join.

If you enjoy self-directed, volunteer-led lifelong learning, PLATO is an ideal way to learn, contribute to others’ learning, enjoy new experiences, and meet new friends.
