Creative Commons launched the CC Certificates for Educators, Librarians and Government (https://certificates.creativecommons.org) two weeks ago at the 2018 CC Summit in Toronto. The CC certificates were developed in response to the increased use of CC licenses globally and the corresponding need to help educators, librarians and government staff acquire Commons expertise. The CC certificates are designed to provide both the basics of using CC licenses and the particular expertise and guidance that educators, librarians, and government staff need when advancing open content, practices and policy in their respective spaces.
This session will provide an overview of each of the certificates, details on how and why to take the CC Certificates, how to become a certified trailer of CC Certificates, and how the CC BY licensed OER can be downloaded and remixed for other purposes. Additional phases of the project will also be discussed and feedback collected.
