OpenSesame pilots Coursica™ to bring learning to college students and recent graduates taking a gap year

Coursica offers a flexible way to learn critical on-the-job-skills to students delaying higher education due to the pandemic 

Portland, OR – 8 October 2020 – With the majority of U.S. colleges moving to online offerings or imposing strict restrictions on campus life in response to the coronavirus pandemic, many students chose to put their higher education plans on hold this semester. Coursica, a new program powered by online learning innovator OpenSesame, aims to bridge the gap for these students with a new type of virtual internship, or “virtualship.”
