The ''Open Learning Foundation'' ('''OLF''') is an association of universities (and some other organisations) in the [[UK]] active in open and flexible learning.

It was created at a time when Higher Education in the UK was starting to experience rapid expansion and the government was debating a policy to create more universities - and at the same time many educationalists were discussing learning techniques and how changes in learning would affect teaching patterns. These two events provided the catalyst to provide a cost-effective way to develop flexible learning materials and staff development in their use

It is a member of [[EADTU]].

Its web site is at http://www.olf.ac.uk/
