Open Educational Resources (OER)
OER 101
CVTC faculty have many professional development opportunities focused on OER. The most popular resource is the Student Success with Open and Affordable Resources course - also referred to as OER 101.
Wisconsin Open Education Symposium
The Wisconsin Open Education Symposium is held annually in October. This free, virtual event brings together educators from Wisconsin Technical College and beyond to learn and share all things open education. This is a great event to continue learning about OER beyond the OER 101 course. View the website for more information.
