Deeply buried is the lede in this article announcing that "the Open Online Course new collection website is now available, featuring two courses that you can start tomorrow and more working their way through the approval and review process." As the article notes, "the Open Online Courses Project from BCcampus is designed to help you assemble high-quality, peer-reviewed, post-secondary courses." These are the first two courses from that project. How useful is this? Go to the Business Communications course and look at the list of 21 courses across 19 institutions in British Columbia that this online course applies to. The course packages include documents, recordings, slides, H5P activities, and more (now I'm wondering what it would take to automatically import one of these into gRSShopper - but one step at a time). Note that the courses are OER licensed as CC By-NC-SA.
