This invited article comprises three parts that document the history of distance and flexible learning in New Zealand and the professional association DEANZ/FLANZ (Distance Education Association of New Zealand, later known as the Flexible Learning Association of New Zealand), which serves this community. The first part was originally published in the DEANZ Magazine in July 2015 as “DEANZ: A Brief History”. The second part was originally published in the FLANZ Magazine in July 2016 as “DEANZ Foundation”. The third, newly written, part brings the history of DEANZ/FLANZ up to date, and is published for the first time here. FLANZ (formerly DEANZ) is a professional association. The Journal of Open, Flexible and Distance Learning is the Association’s flagship journal.
