The progress of e-learning: how technology can benefit and engage new learners? - European Association for the Education of Adults

"The use of e-learning can be seen as a key to help engaging new learners. If MOOCs certificates currently have low value in the labour market and in formal education, they can help students to become confident and gain skills. Also the European Union has taken into consideration this new approach of learning. One of the policy recommendations of the European Commission in its article about MOOCs in Europe is to promote the use of MOOCs for re-skilling and up-skilling both unemployed people and workers."
