CIC-OCSC

 


VWU is a member of the Council of Independent Colleges Online Course Sharing Consortium. Today I took part in a strategic planning session alongside member presidents and Amanda Gould and Sarah MacDonald, both of Acadeum, and Matt Trainum, CIC Vice President - Networks and Strategic Partnerships. In particular, we focused on enhancing January Term, May Term and Summer Session offerings collaboratively. The CIC-OCSC allows member institutions to support student success, expand curriculum, drive enrollment, and generate new revenue by sharing courses with trusted partners online. The Consortium is powered by Acadeum, whose Course Share™ technology facilitates cross-registration and minimizes the administrative and support burdens of online course sharing. Over 12,000 learners enrolled in CIC-OCSC courses in 2022.
