Open Co-Curricular Practices/Educational OCP

As discussed earlier, educational OCP focus on increasing participants' knowledge and skills, often in alignment with the educational program in which the student is enrolled. They can be disciplinary (including interdisciplinary) or non-disciplinary. It is possible for faculty of staff of an institution to create or adapt educational OCP. Due to expertise, it is most relevant for faculty to contribute to disciplinary OCP and staff to contribute to non-disciplinary OCP. For example, a faculty member in the institution's psychology department might act as an advisor for the Psychological Society club, and might help them produce an educational OCP consisting of a resource on how to combat mental health stigma among undergraduates.
