With final days of the project, we thought it would be a fun way to look back and ask team members what this project means to them, what they think about when BizMOOC is in discussion. So here is, Christian Friedl talking about what BizMOOC is to him.
Who needs Black Friday or Cyber Monday, when the new MOOCBOOK is available at any time and for free?! The team went through all the questions and comments, so just go to http://mooc-book.eu/ and find out what is this new version all about.

Join us this Tuesday 23 October, 14.30-15.30 CEST for a live webinar session on “MOOCs for the world of business”.
This webinar series called “MOOC Design” and hosted by OpenupEd. Chris of our BizMOOC Team will discuss with you interesting findings and trends connected to MOOCs in business use. Book your free access here.
What to expect?
MOOCs are entering the business sector, especially in the field of Human Resource Development and customer training. Still, the experience and awareness level with MOOCs among employers and labour force is still rather low. The BizMOOC project explored the potential of MOOCs for use in business from different perspectives: Surveys and interviews with all actors (companies, universities and learners), the implementation and comprehensive evaluation of 3 MOOC Pilots and the integration of external experts, advisors, but also the community. In this webinar, Christian Friedl, the coordinator of the BizMOOC project, will present the latest lessons learnt, invites to jointly reflect on the recommendations drawn and showcases good practice identified.
Talking about barriers and opportunities to better exploit the potentials of MOOCs, round tables took place to discuss the future and uptake of the outcomes of BizMOOC. Some very interesting points have been made and we are looking forward to the next meetings in Italy and Slovakia!
