WELCOME TO OUR COMMUNITY

Let's work together to make higher education more open

Join the Open Education Network, a community dedicated to working together to make higher education more affordable, equitable, and accessible.

BROAD GEOGRAPHIC REACH


Your local and regional context matters, but support can sometimes come from unexpected places. Our growing community includes members from across the United States and Australia.

ALL KINDS OF INSTITUTIONS


Different types of organizations have different needs, and it’s helpful to learn from those facing similar challenges. Learn from people who work at higher ed institutions of various sizes and types including public and private universities and colleges, R1s, community colleges and consortia.

SUPPORT FOR EVERY STAGE


Connect with members who are at emerging, established and in-between stages in their open education programs.
