Here is a list of #moocs that start between now and the beginning of February which we think and hope might interest learning professionals and their colleagues. We’ve pulled a range of courses together from higher-level strategy topics to practical skills based ones. This list covers a broad range of topics because we believe the future of learning requires learning professionals to look at wider business issues that drive the learning agenda.
We have not taken any of these courses so cannot vouch for how good they might be. This is more of a signposting service!
