MOOC

What is MOOC?

A MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) is a free or low-cost online course available to a large number of participants, typically offered by universities or educational platforms. MOOCs cover a wide range of subjects and are delivered through video lectures, readings, quizzes, and discussion forums. In corporate learning and development, employers may encourage or subsidise MOOC participation as part of continuous professional development, upskilling initiatives, or self-directed learning programmes. Popular MOOC platforms include Coursera, edX, and Udemy, offering courses from leading universities and industry experts.
