Welcome!

Welcome!

We are a consortium of educational institutions in the greater Houston area, promoting the use of openly licensed and free teaching and learning resources. Hundreds of thousands of students use open educational resources (OER) in the greater Houston area annually, saving millions in textbook costs. Our goal is to support open, accessible educational opportunities and resources for all.
