Abstract

Although Open Educational Resources (OER) initially aimed to facilitate access to educational topics in school, these tools and contents may be used in the public sector, for example, embedded in an e-learning concept. According to Stoffregen [1], this may still seem quite challenging but getting there is possible as also Nurhas et al. [2] have pointed out. In this paper, we therefore present an initial OER competence framework to successfully use OER also in the public admiration. Our framework aims to provide a first set of competences that may be specific for the public sector, but also abilities one may find in various industries, such as acquiring technical, legal or collaborative skills that are needed to implement a sustainable strategy for the use of OER in the respective organization. Therefore, we will present two examples for its practical application: a questionnaire for self-assessment and an example for an OER training concept.
