As learning professionals, we’ve struggled to make sense of how to leverage new technologies to create an integrated, effective learning experience – versus a dizzying array of disconnected technology point solutions. How do we create learning experiences that seamlessly integrate the power of these technology trends?

Enter the corporate MOOC.

Our “MOOC on Corporate MOOCs” is a three-week course that introduces learning professionals to the power of a MOOC in order to meet a company’s learning needs. Whether for internal company use or customer facing training, the MOOC on Corporate MOOCs provides participants with a high level overview of corporate MOOCs and what it can achieve.

At the end of this three week experience, participants will be empowered with:

• The knowledge to be a learning professional educated and enthusiastic about the prospect of using a MOOC in their organization.
• A business plan that will help a learning professional communicate to organizational colleagues and leadership about a MOOC strategy, and the importance of the MOOC to their current training initiatives.
