MOOCs in brief

Each MOOC is sized as a 5 week part-time course (3-7 hours a week). The courses are offered asynchronously and year-round.

This allows learners who don’t have a fast or reliable internet connection to learn at their own pace.

Learners can access and complete lectures, readings, homework and other learning materials at any time.
