A SCoPE history of making OERu futures happen
The OER Foundation subscribes to open philanthropy and since the inception of the OERu concept in 2011 we have hosted pre-meeting SCoPE seminars to inform our open OERu meetings.

In February 2011, Paul Stacey at BCcampus facilitated the first OERu SCoPE online seminar which generated for the OER for Assessment and Credit for Students Meeting leading to the establishment of the OERu concept. In August of the same year, a second SCoPE seminar was convened to discuss recommendations for the inaugural OERu credential to generate for the OERu 2011.11 Meeting of Founding Anchor Partners. In September 2013, Irwin DeVries, David Porter, Brian Lamb and Wayne Mackintosh facilitated OERu: Developing an Agenda Together in preparation for the 2013 partner meeting (see ). During August 2014, we facilitated a session Bringing the OERu strategic pieces together as the synthesis phase in concluding the consultative development of the OERu strategic plan.
