OER Universitas
Open Educational Resource (OER) University is a collaboration of post-secondary educational institutions with the aim of providing opportunities to learn from open educational resources and gain credit at costs lower than traditional degrees.[1] The conceptual framework underpinning the OER University creates a structure whereby students who are ordinarily shut out from traditional higher education, may engage in free learning, and receive formal accreditation from participating universities.
