The 2021 Open Education Conference (#OpenEd21) welcomes participation from all who are interested in sharing and learning about open education. The conference has worked to make this year's registration rate as low as possible, but we recognize that any cost will be a barrier to some participants.

If the registration rate of $85 USD (general) or $25 USD (students) would be a barrier to your participation in the Open Education Conference, you are encouraged to apply for a full or partial scholarship according to your circumstances. The form below asks a set of questions about your context, your interest in the conference, and what registration rate would make participation possible for you.

To apply, fill out the form below. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and decisions are sent by email within one week of application. More information is available on our FAQ, and you can reach us at contact@openeducationconference.org.
