From Stopgap to Strategy: Making the Most of Course and Program Share

November 2, 2025


This session will demonstrate how institutions are strategically using the CIC Online Course Sharing Consortium (CIC-OCSC) beyond ”just in time” solutions. The panel will discuss how a CIC member took regional market data and used the consortium to launch a new program on campus. In addition to program share, you will hear from a campus about how they were able to increase their summer enrollment through course share. Finally, there will be a live demo of Skills Marketplace which allows campuses to offer badges/micro-credentials to students. You will see in just a few steps how campuses can launch their own iteration of Skills Marketplace within a month. Session attendees will also gain access to a market study highlighting opportunities for new program viability within their region.

Moderator: Matt Trainum, Vice President for Networks and Strategic Partnerships, CIC
