DID YOU KNOW? OSAPAC AND YOU

What is OSAPAC?
The Ontario Software Acquisition Program Advisory Committee consults with the publicly funded education system to assess provincial priorities in the areas of required software titles recommended by teachers in support of learning. They maintain a web-enabled database, in both official languages of all provincially licensed software. OSAPAC provides additional support, including professional development opportunities, where appropriate and available for the implementation of provincially licensed software.  They are responsible for maintaining a web-enabled database of Ontario curriculum expectations linked to provincially licensed software titles. Finally they consult with the publicly funded education system to assess provincial priorities in the areas of required software titles recommended by teachers in support of learning.

How To Access The Resources?
Each Board/District has a designated “Operational Contact” for Ministry-licensed digital resources. Teachers have access to an online community (eCommunity) from which they can download software titles and access necessary codes.  Once they have accessed the resource, teachers may share the access with students and parents through sharing their class code or via email.
