using the cc by license, workshop for 2013 open kick-off
DESCRIPTION
Summary of session from OPEN Kickoff Conference for DOL TAACCCT Round 2 Grantees: This session will dive into detail about the CC BY licensing requirement and what it takes to apply the license to grantee materials. CC will go over the CC license chooser tool, examples of good license implementation, and content-sharing platforms where you can upload resources under the CC BY license. If enough time and interest, CC will also go over best practices for giving attribution to the creators of CC licensed works, especially as part of a larger resource, such as a textbook or course.

The license is irrevocable and perpetual.
However, you can always change the license.
CC licenses are non-exclusive, so dual licensing is permitted.
