Online Course Exchange
Aiding Access to Quality Curricula
The Online Course Exchange (OCE) helps higher education systems and consortia share courses, through the Exchange’s online platform, with peer member institutions and the students they serve. In doing so, it expands student access to high-quality curricula and enables teaching and learning at a scale convenient for institutions, and less feasible within a single institution.
Conceived and designed by educators, the Exchange’s flexible design supports various institutional goals and business models—from state systems sharing courses across geographically dispersed institutions, to discipline-specific exchanges across schools in multiple states.
