**Rescheduled Date!**
Join us as Jennryn Wetzler of Creative Commons provides an overview of its CC Certificate program, which offers in-depth courses about CC licenses, copyright, and open practices for their global, shared digital commons. Alumna Andrea Bearman of TrineOnline will share her experience in completing the CC Certificate, and how she's used this knowledge.
MHEC's contract with Creative Commons for existing and custom Creative Commons licensing for professional learning opportunities is available through June 2023. This contract offers a 15% discount to staff and institutional members of MHEC and its sister compacts: the New England Board of Higher Education (NEBHE), the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), and the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE). Creative Commons is an international nonprofit organization dedicated to helping build and sustain a thriving commons of shared knowledge and culture. Through workshops, consultations and the Creative Commons Certificate, community members develop open licensing expertise and a deeper understanding of recommended practices for sharing.
