Career Management
Want to advance in your career ? Take a MOOC !
People who take Massive Online Open Courses specifically to gain tangible career benefits,namely –
(a) getting a raise, (b) finding a new job, or (c) starting a new business – aren’t just advantaged populations from developed countries.
Analysis of Coursera survey data on HBR.org reveals that -while about 35% of people at the top of the socioeconomic ladder in OECD and non-OECD countries report tangible benefits, 39% and 32% of people from such countries, respectively, at the BOTTOM ( of the economic ladder) ALSO report similar benefits !!
And people with lower levels of education from developing countries are MORE LIKELY to report tangible career benefits than others.
Conclusion & Recommendation
So while it may be true that very few people complete MOOCs, those who do can get ahead at work across levels of education and income.
