People who take Massive Online Open Courses specifically to gain tangible career benefits – getting a raise, finding a new job, or starting a new business – aren’t just advantaged populations from developed countries. Analysis of Coursera survey data on HBR.org reveals that while about 35% of people at the top of the socioeconomic ladder in OECD and non-OECD countries report tangible benefits, 39% and 32% of people from such countries, respectively, at the bottom report similar benefits. And people with lower levels of education from developing countries are more likely to report tangible career benefits than others. So while it may be true that very few people complete MOOCs, those who do can get ahead at work across levels of education and income.
