CCOSA

What CCOSA does

CCOSA (Cooperative Council for Oklahoma School Administration) is an incorporated, not-for-profit professional association headquartered at 2901 Lincoln Boulevard in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. It operates as the umbrella organization for five Oklahoma education associations — OASA, OASSP, OAESP, OMLEA, and ODSS — collectively representing school administrators, secondary and elementary principals, middle-level educators, and directors of special services. Its stated mission is to establish communication and cooperation between educators, taxpayers, and legislators to improve the effectiveness of professional school administrators and to advocate for Oklahoma schools.

CCOSA's core offerings include a member portal (delivered via Salesforce/My-Site Experience Cloud), a Professional Learning program, annual and regional conferences, a Career Center job board, and a District Login System (DLS) for district-level administrative access. The organization also provides iOS and Android mobile applications extending member portal functionality to mobile devices. The underlying technology is a standard association management platform — web portal, mobile apps, and a separate district login — with no disclosed proprietary technology, AI features, or API surface.

The business model is membership-based: revenue is generated primarily through annual membership dues from administrators, professional educators, and classified personnel who join as associate members. Distribution is conducted through direct self-serve enrollment on the CCOSA website and member portal, supplemented by district-level institutional access via DLS. To date, CCOSA reports over 3,100 administrator members plus hundreds of associate members, with no parent company, private equity, or venture capital ownership indicated.

Others
