Working to expand open pedagogy on your campus? Consider applying for the Open Education Network (OEN) Certificate in Open Pedagogy Program.
The Certificate in Open Pedagogy is a professional development program that will create actionable pathways for faculty and librarians to implement open education for the transformation of learning.
Faculty and partners (librarians, instructional designers, etc.) will complete a nine-week long, asynchronous course in the spring of 2025 about the range of open educational practices with modules on the hallmarks of open education, copyright and Creative Commons licensing, the hallmarks of open pedagogy, the benefits and limitations of OEP, accessibility, and student empowerment and agency. Together, the faculty and faculty partner pairs will create an Action Plan to be implemented the following spring that seeks to transform learning through the power of open education.
In addition, the cohort will benefit from close engagement with program faculty—open education leaders who have gained expertise through experience, professional development, and participation in various national initiatives.
The integrated components of the certification program include online content, instructor-led cohorts, and action plan support and assessment.
In order to assure we can offer personalized attention to participants throughout the program, the cohort will be limited to 20 teams

In support of CARLI member libraries' Open Education, the Open Educational Resources Committee is pleased to announce that funding is available for one team of two individuals from a CARLI member that consists of a teaching faculty member and a partner librarian to attend the Open Education Network's Certificate in Open Pedagogy Program.
On your application, please note that other scholarships are available as a CARLI Member you should not apply for these scholarships.
Acceptance by the OEN is required but does not guarantee CARLI support. CARLI will notify member librarians within seven working days to confirm if CARLI support is available. If more than one team is accepted into the program by the OEN and subsequently request CARLI support, the OER Committee will select recipients for this support based on the promotion of geographic and library type diversity. Once approved by the OER Committee, CARLI will reimburse the program registration fees up to $1,060 per individual for a total of $2,120.
In return for CARLI's support of attendance, each librarian attendee must fulfill certain requirements:
