ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Marylandian -- Join a global community event to explore how open source solutions can help address today's challenges facing higher education. Register for Open Apereo 2021 at http://bit.ly/OA21Reg to participate in the conversation!

Open source software -- flexible, adaptable, without the price hikes and licensing constraints associated with commercial-proprietary software -- is helping institutions around the world respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Open Apereo 2021 is the place to gain key insights about open source and the emerging higher education landscape, and to share best practices.

Open Apereo features –

• Stories from the front line of international institutional responses to the COVID-19 pandemic
• Practical experience of open-source software adoption, adaptation and lessons learned
• Lead presentations and conversations about key policy areas, including privacy and ethics
• Exploration of the new landscape for higher education and the role of open-source software as a key agent supporting change and innovation

Open Apereo 2021 is more than a conventional conference online. We'll be supporting the program with added-value video and other content in advance of the event -- to focus on better enabling the conversations that matter.
