The Open Educational Resources Tertiary Education Network (OERTen)
As a result of the continuing discussion on how Open Educational Resources and Open Course Ware can be used to award credit to learners who cannot join tertiary education via the traditional path, a new network of higher education institutions that are committed to providing accessible high quality education was created. OERTen has so far ten anchor partners from five countries notably The United States of America, Canada, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. Also, it is great to see that those anchor partners represent three continents. All this happened in a period of only one year. It is a clear evidence of the outcome of the effort of enthusiastic educators who are passionate about open education. The network is still growing.
