Educational Content OER/philb

CETIS are engaged in a wide range of open educational resource initiatives both nationally and internationally in support of JISC's work in this domain. A major part of our work in this area is to provide technical guidance and support to the UK Open Educational Resource (UKOER) Programmes run jointly by JISC and The Higher Education Academy. CETIS also provides strategic technical input and synthesises and disseminates the technical outputs of these programmes.

This page and subsections provide an overview of CETIS's work with Open Educational Resources (OER), including our support for the UKOER programmes, and list some key resources.
