Using the OERs

A series of Open Educational Resources (OERs) have been developed through the three-year Erasmus+ funded ESSA Project. Each resource has been designed to complement the others, enabling the delivery of a social responsibility audit within a European Higher Education Institution and completion of the Certificate in Social Responsibility Auditing by student participants.

There are four key elements to the OER as listed below.

Facilitator training programme
Auditor training programme
Audit manuals
Assessment and Certification manual

Scroll through the tiles below to find out more about each element.

If you have any questions regarding the resources, please get in touch with a member of the project team.

Open Educational Resources

Facilitator Training Manual Designed to prepare HEI staff to deliver the auditor training programme with student participants by providing an overview of University Social Responsibility as well as developing facilitation techniques.
Auditor Training Program Designed to prepare students to complete a 5 day social responsibility audit within a European Higher Education Institution based on the Benchmark Standards for University Social Responsibility, and to produce a report based on their findings and recommendations.
Audit manuals Practical guidance and tools for HEIs hosting a social responsibility audit, being audited by students who have undergone the auditor training programme. Guidance is provided for institution staff as well as students involved in completing the audit.
Assessment Manual and Certification Framework Alongside the completion of training and delivery of an audit is the potential for students to complete the Certificate in Social Responsibility Auditing. This manual provides details of the framework for the assessment of the learning outcomes associated with completion of the certificate (5 ECTS credits, EQF level 6).
