Unlike traditional corporate training, MOOCs leverage world-class instructors and are taking advantage of video, collaboration, machine learning, and simulation from the start. Their platforms are focused on delivering a learning experience, not just a course catalog.

While this is still a young market, the demand is there and we expect it to grow exponentially in the coming years.
