SUMMARY:MSU & OpenStax: Institutional Partnership Program Launch
DESCRIPTION:
 This event will introduce the OpenStax Institutional 
 Partnership Program to the MSU community. 
 MSU is one of 11 colleges and universities, 
 serving diverse students across the United 
 States, that were chosen to participate in the 
 2021-2022 Institutional Partnership Program. 
 This program is designed to provide institutions 
 with free coaching, training, and support 
 in using OpenStax and other open educational 
 resources (OER). Our goal is to build a strong 
 community of institutions who work together 
 to develop a deeper understanding of what 
 can be done with OpenStax and the vast ecosystem 
 of OER materials. We are pleased to collaborate 
 with these colleges and universities 
 to increase awareness, interest, adoption, and 
 creation of open educational resources in 
 our campus communities.\n

 This hour-long webinar 
 will also introduce participants to the 
 MSU Libraries OER Program and the OER Award Program. 
 This event is free and open to all.\n
