2025 OEAwards Review Committee Members

The Awards Committee plays a central role in the Open Education Awards for Excellence by making the selection process community driven. The 30 members of the 2025 committee are all previous awardees. You can learn more about them and their OEAwards activity via the bios below (more to be added).

The committee’s primary role is to review and evaluate nominations, ensuring the worthy are selected for ther awards. By the review process that yields the shortlist of finalists, the Awards Committee facilitates the decision-making process for the voting panel and board of directors. Their diligent work is essential to the program’s success.

We deeply appreciate the contributions of this group.
