In this episode of Illuminate Higher Education, N2N Services CEO Kiran Kodithala speaks with Pierre Dubuc, Co-Founder and CEO at OpenClassrooms.

Pierre Dubuc's mission with OpenClassrooms is to make education more accessible to all. And he’s making big strides with the massive amount of open, online courses (aka MOOC courses) now available. They're a challenge to traditional higher education and an avenue for life-long learning in general.

On top of that, we have a growing need to learn more. We need upskilling and rescaling programs because jobs and skills are changing like never before.

The concept of customized learning within higher education has skyrocketed since Covid. As a result, full university experiences have moved online, giving students a partial or full online education opportunity that accommodates their schedules. We can definitively say that anybody can learn online in some form due to the popularity of MOOC courses and the adjustments that universities have made around the world.
