Project Update: August 2025
As the start of the semester approaches, we’re excited to share what’s new with the Open Education Association Development Project. On July 28th, we hosted the Report Out and Next Steps webinar, where the Steering Committee presented findings from the national needs assessment and field conversations, along with what’s coming next. If you missed it or want to revisit the discussion, the recording and slides are now available. We also invite you to add your thoughts to the Padlet, which will remain open for contributions.
