About BCcampus Open Education

This is one of many support resources from BCcampus Open Education.
Also see the Information Directory and OER by Discipline Directory.

Welcome to the BCcampus Open Education Post-Secondary Directory where, in the first section, open education information for each post-secondary institution in British Columbia has been aggregated into one resource for all to reference. The second section lays out open education information for the rest of Canada by province and territory.

This is an ongoing resource to which information will be updated as needed. Each chapter includes a “Last update” posted at the top of the page and, because it is changed frequently, ISBNs are not provided for this guide in accordance with the ISBNs’ User Manual.

BCcampus Open Education began in 2012 as the B.C. Open Textbook Project with the goal of making post-secondary education in British Columbia more accessible by reducing students’ costs through the use of open textbooks and other OER. BCcampus supports the post-secondary institutions of British Columbia as they adapt and evolve their teaching and learning practices to enable powerful learning opportunities for the students of B.C. BCcampus Open Education is funded by the British Columbia Ministry of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills, and the Hewlett Foundation.
