COSER’s in instructional support services
Simply put, a COSER is a “cooperative service” designed to meet the needs of participating districts. Instructional Support Services is made up of over 25 different cooperative services organized into three main categories and led by a Program Manager: Professional Development (Barb VanWicklin), Learning Resources (Laurie MacVittie), and Student Programming (Cindy Crandall). While most districts in the CA BOCES region participate in the following COSER’s, check with your business official or the designated Program Manager for district subscription.
