This document provides guidance for compiling an open educational resource (OER) course containing all elements from a CCNS course that addresses all CCNS competencies and topic areas. The compiled OER course should be organized by competencies and topics rather than units or dates. It should include all relevant course elements such as syllabus, readings, assignments, assessments, and feedback mechanisms. The goal is to share this expertise and experience within the consortium and beyond to help other practitioners.
