Open Education Resources:
A Dual Enrollment Equity Strategy

Are you eager to increase equitable access and participation in your program? Watch the session on NACEP's PEP Talk and explore Open Educational Resources as Program Equity Practice (PEP).

What are NACEP PEP Talks? 

PEP Talks are a field-focused resource series designed for practitioners interested in advancing equity in their programs. PEP Talks break equity work into smaller, bite-size initiatives to support increasing equitable access and participation in dual and concurrent enrollment. Each PEP Talk is designed with the practitioner in mind and includes a summary of the topic, examples from the field, links to resources, and actionable steps to get started.

OER as a Program Equity Practice

In case you missed it, authors Tanya Grosz (Open Education Network) and Amy Williams (NACEP) presented a session that discussed ways to increase equity by removing the financial barrier for textbook costs through Open Educational Resources (OER). This session made the case for OER as a program equity strategy and provided attendees with actionable steps for using OER to decrease costs for students, districts, and colleges.
