Guide To The Best MOOC Courses In Business

MOOCs are all the rage these days. Some enthusiasts claim they’ll eventually replace brick-and-mortar classrooms. Others dismiss them as watered-down curriculum and glorified correspondence courses. Either way, MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) have grabbed the attention of educators. And no one is quite sure if they are friend or foe, a fad or the future.

Last year, Poets and Quants Founder John Byrne reviewed many of the free MOOCs available for MBAs. Some courses lasted 6 weeks; others went months. Most included homework and tests. And they covered topics ranging from financial markets to organizational analysis. And some were even taught by leading minds at top institutions like Darden and Stanford.

So what are the best MOOCS out there for MBAs?  Byrne identified 7 courses worthy of serious study. You can find course descriptions, along with instructor information and synopses, on the Poets and Quants link below.
