Massive open online courses (MOOCs) — or online instruction for lifelong learners and those without access to higher education domestically or abroad — are still relatively new to the continuing education landscape. And they’re not going away anytime soon. Often free and always relatively cheap (when compared with the cost of typical higher education classes), MOOCs can be a valuable tool for pretty much anyone with Internet access to further their education, specialize within their career (whether you’re a dietitian, say, or a data analyst) or simply pick up a new language or instrument. For the most curious among us, it’s also an inexpensive way to step onto the campus of an Ivy League school, if only for an hour-long webinar.
