Education in Canada is exclusively a provincial or territorial responsibility: we do not have a formal federal presence to connect open activities on a national level. At BCcampus, we have created strong and successful relationships with groups in other regions to propel the use of open across the country, benefiting students from Victoria to St. John’s, and everywhere in between.
Join the open community
To facilitate and enable the discussion across Canada, we initiated a national working group. Canada OER is comprised of participants from open education initiatives and post-secondary institutions across the country, who share information and promote open education. The goal of the group is to improve access to higher education for students in Canada.
To join the Canada OER mailing list, submit a request from the CanadaOER subscription page or email open@bccampus.ca.
