NEW OER Grant Program | Now Accepting Applications
Support KPU's commitment to Open Education by applying to the newly updated OER Grant
Program. Regular faculty can apply for funding to create or adapt Open Educational
Resources!
🔗 OER are materials that are freely accessible and openly
available<https://media.kpu.ca/media/What+are+Open+Educational+ResourcesF/0_8zhj26kp>
for anyone to use, re-mix, improve and redistribute. This can include images, videos,
interactive simulations, worksheets, and of course, textbooks.
There are now two streams of grants offered by this program:
Stream A: OER Grant— to a maximum value of $4,000, up to $2,000 of which can be used for
professional development purchases or activities by the grant recipient. The remaining
amount can be used for project funding as outlined in Eligible Expenses.

and up to $2,000 for additional project funding as outlined in Eligible Expenses.
