Outline

The Program for Open Scholarship and Education (POSE) is a new one-year flexible and blended program run by the UBC Open Working Group, the Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology and the UBC Library. The program will help you develop foundational knowledge of Open Scholarship, Open Education and Open Research. By completing this program you will gain the tools and strategies to become proficient in supporting and advocating for open practices.

This program is intended for faculty, staff, postdocs and graduate students with an interest in open research, open access, open data and open education. We also invite non-UBC faculty, staff, and students at the Post-Secondary level to join the conversation.

The google spreadsheet will be used to track the program development activities.
