Job Opportunity - Program Director of CCCOER
Liz Yata
The time has come to seek a new program director of the Community College Consortium for OER (CCCOER) as Una Daly will be rewiring (alternative term to retiring) from Open Education Global (OE Global) at the end of 2023.
CCCOER is a robust nucleus of over 105 pioneering community colleges that have been joining Open Education Global since 2012 to learn and share best practices for creating equitable and sustainable open education programs. The Community College Consortium for OER (affectionately known as CCCOER) has emerged as a vibrant and leading voice for open education, with members across 37 North American states and provinces representing hundreds of colleges striving to lower barriers to student success through OER and open pedagogy.
“The last decade has seen considerable growth in the adoption of open educational resources and practices that lower barriers to student access and success,” says current Program Director, Una Daly. “Community colleges have led the way with their mission of open enrollment and the vision that students, particularly those from traditionally underserved communities, can succeed in their educational and career goals. It has been my privilege to play a role in this work and be part of the wonderful CCCOER community where we’ve learned how to become better open education leaders working together.”
OE Global is seeking a passionate, experienced open education leader to join our team to advance the field of open education at community and technical colleges across North America. The program director will manage the daily operations of CCCOER, and liaise with multiple internal and external stakeholders to OE Global, working with members to develop and lead the next phase of open education innovation. They will closely coordinate with the OE Global Co-Executive Directors and the CCCOER Executive Council to support community engagement, communications, long-term planning, and fiscal sustainability.
