McGraw Hill & Online Learning Consortium
We know you need more than just digital content. You need high-quality, pedagogically sound digital content that is instructionally designed for student success.
About Our Partnership
McGraw Hill has partnered with the dedicated higher education community at the Online Learning Consortium (OLC) to provide advanced quality digital teaching and learning experiences.
McGraw Hill and the OLC have created a Quality in Online Learning Certification for our Digital Faculty Consultants (DFCs) and implementation team. With research-backed best practices, this certification provides our Digital Success Consultants and DFCs at McGraw Hill with progressive resources on how to build, facilitate and assess online courses.
OLC-Aligned Courses
Together with the OLC, our certified Digital Success Consultants and our Digital Faculty Consultants have created specifically engineered Connect courses that you can access to get your progressive and high-quality courses up and running.
Our OLC-aligned Connect courses are built with the Online Learning Consortium's quality scorecard, ensuring our resources align with online course development best practices. Find out now how you can access an OLC-Aligned course.
What is an OLC-Aligned Course?
The OLC-aligned Connect courses we provide are engineered and checked against the Online Learning Consortium's quality scorecard.
Our courses follow the best practices in aspects such as:
- Course technology and tools
- Learning outcomes
- Design and layout
- Accessibility
- Student engagement and success
- And much more
Benefits of OLC-Aligned Courses
Our OLC-aligned courses have many benefits. With exclusively engineered courseware aligned to online course development best practices, educators can access how-to videos and on-demand toolkits that will aid in course preparation. Syllabus guides and quick-start guides are provided to help get your course up and running as quickly and as effortlessly as possible.
We also provide access to virtual coaching from OLC-certified, Connect-trained peers.
“This partnership just reaffirms McGraw Hill's dedication to excellence in education, for students and instructors. I had never given (or taken) an online course before Covid-19, and participating in the certification allowed me to experience what quality online education looks and feels like from a student perspective. Being mindful of that experience when designing & delivering my course turned out to be a great benchmark for excellence, and just one benefit of the OLC & McGraw Hill partnership.”
