OER Opportunities
Curious about OER? Looking to do more? Wherever you are in your OER “journey,” consider attending the upcoming 2021 OER Summit sponsored by Affordable Learning PA. With its theme of Journey to Affordability, the third annual ALPA Summit will help get you energized about open and affordable learning at your institution and across the state. ALPA Summit will take place virtually August 17th – 19th. Keynote speakers are Jeff Gallant of Affordable Learning GA and Alexis Clifton of SUNY Geneso.

A second opportunity for OER professional development is the OpenEd Conference, happening virtually October 18th – 22nd. The cost for OpenEd is $75 ($25 for students).
Lastly, if you’re looking to get plugged in, there are a few ways to get involved with ALPA including: volunteering to be an ALPA Campus Partner or joining one of the ALPA Working Groups. Together we can make learning more open, affordable, and accessible in Pennsylvania!
