“…The study recommended that for higher institution learners MOOCs should be used in a blended learning format to enable learners to have face-to-face interaction. These researchers, however, concurred with Sammour et al (2015) that, when effectively implemented, MOOCs usage benefits are enormous.…”

The global pandemic of coronavirus “Covid-19” in the fall of 2019 caused dramatic changes in all sectors, including education. Businesses, like corporate organizations that normally train their employees annually, were equally affected, due to lack of instructors. Learning institutions were faced with various challenges due to the abrupt paradigm shift of changing from face-to-face to online teaching and learning, with limited preparedness. For scalability, and to maintain their annual strategies of keeping their dynamic capabilities, organizations were forced to adapt online training although with limited preparedness. However, electronic learning innovations such as the massive open online courses (MOOCs) that should have been leveraged by corporate organizations to train their employees during these hard times, had been mainly tailored for educational institutions. More still, much as MOOCs are essential for all enterprises, there have been few or no models developed to inform their adoption for corporate training. This study sought to bridge this gap, thus developed a model for MOOCs adoption for corporate training, based on data collected from South African private sectors, and analysed quantitatively. Results indicated that perception and attitude toward technology, teaching styles, and technology control are key influencing factors of MOOCs adoption for corporate training. The developed model will be used to provide insights into MOOCs adoption for workplace training, and to extend research on MOOCs usage. It is recommended that future studies consider the analysis of the moderating effects of respondents’ demographics, their perceptions possibly changing over time.

eLearning is a medium which is commonly implemented to provide learning module between instructor and learner through distance. In this era of digital technology, learning should be simplified, practical and can be provided in a holistic manner. eLearning is cost-effective as compared to traditional forms of learning. The reason for this price reduction is because learning through this mode happens quickly and easily. A lot of training time is reduced with respect to trainers, travel, course materials, and accommodation. Surprisingly, most institutions provide the method of distance learning instead of a physical classroom or face-to-face as a modern strategy in the learning environment. But yet, institutions need to prepare all sorts of things in order to take the challenges. In Malaysia, the MOOC initiative has been implemented a few years ago as a blended learning method and continued until now especially in Higher Learning Institutions. The technology of MOOC has sparkling the learning concept into a very interesting medium of learning between learner and instructor. Thus, the Khan eight-dimensional framework has been applied in this study in order to discuss the MOOC initiatives, including the brief history of MOOC, technological structure and learning design as a new technology for enhanced learning in the 21st century and beyond.
