In this work the construction of a learning unit in the form of Open Educational Resource (OER) is described. The unit concerns sustainability issues of medicament administration and refers to the curricula of vocational education and training. The OER has been implemented in an institute of vocational training. This implementation as well as evaluation of the OER by various agents (trainees, trainers, prospective and in-service vocational school teachers) is also presented in this work. Results indicate that OER can be an excellent learning tool for education for sustainable development.
