Hello |FNAME|
I hope this message finds you well. I am contacting you as the lead representative to Open Education Global at your organisation, |MMERGE3|.
As the registered lead contact, you should receive occasional special announcements and resources related to your organization’s membership with Open Education Global (OEGlobal) (https://www.oeglobal.org/) . We believe you are best suited to share these updates with your open education colleagues, who will benefit from this information. If you are not the appropriate contact, I apologize and ask that you suggest an alternative contact within your organization who would be better positioned to distribute these messages internally. To suggest an alternate contact, reply to this email with their name and email address.
This email aims to inform you that we have just opened nominations for the 2025 Open Education Awards for Excellence (https://awards.oeglobal.org/) . We look forward to strong participation from the OEGlobal membership (OEGlobal Members – OEGlobal) as nominations and winners!
This year, we emphasize that the awards are part of a broader effort to recognize achievements within our community. Each nomination will be made public as each represents a contribution worth sharing. We will also be issuing digital badges to all nominees. Do not hesitate to submit a nomination simply because you feel that a person or project is not “big” or comparable to some standard of excellence. All your efforts in open education are valuable, and that is the aim of this initiative.
Please take the time to consider, within your organization, which individuals, resources, or projects should be shared that demonstrate the potential, ideas, and reach of open education. Additionally, we ask that you look outside your organization for candidates and encourage your networks and colleagues to nominate someone or a project that has significantly influenced their work in open education.
You will find all the details for planning and gathering information in the 2025 Awards Nomination Guide (2025 Awards Nomination Guide – Open Education Awards for Excellence) , where you will also find the link to the nomination form. There is plenty of time – nominations will be accepted until July 21.
This year, our theme is considering our work like gardening (It’s the Season for Planting Seeds of Recognition that Grow into OEAwards for Excellence – OEGlobal) , and that both outstanding ideas and recognition start with the act of planting a seed. We hope you will consider fostering acts of open recognition with the seed of an OEAwards nomination in 2025.
If you need assistance or want to discuss your ideas, please join the OEAwards discussions in the OEG Connect community (OEAwards - OE Global Connect) or contact me directly.
Warm regards and sunny days,
Alan Levine
Director of Innovation & Community Engagement (Alan Levine – OEGlobal) ,
OEGlobal
